Bittorrent still reboots my computer.

When you start downloading a file, bittorrent creates an empty file of the same filesize to allocate space. If your system is overclocked and unstable, then it might be crashing when bittorrent creates the file.

No... it creates the file fine... I have a very stable computer. Plenty of HDD space, cool, etc. XP never, ever crashes for me either- except on the reboot for bittorrent.


I'm thinking it has something to do with the users im connected to and the porting?

what are you dl'ing ... I've been using bittorrent for awhile and no issues ... do you have the latest version?

This is probably a stupid question, but what is bittorrent?

What bittorrent tracker do you use? I used to use DonkAx, but they got shut down after all those DDOS attacks (or at least I thought they got shut down, maybe they relocated and I just don't know where they are)

there's two different verison. bittorent 3.2.1 which has no interface or GUI and there's bittorrent++ which has a GUI and options to tweak the program. if one is giving you problems, try the other.
