hacked account or major site bug?, page 1

A few weeks ago I started to notice that all my torrents weren't connectable. That was weird because I had everything set up right. The i noticed that the number of seeds was way above what I was actually seeding (at least two time more then it should).
Opened the All my downloads and a lot of of downloaded torrents came up that I never even opened, opening the all my download again something like 15 show up that first of all I haven't downloaded them at all and worse they don't have enough seed time to achieve the seed goals. Also my download traffic keeps increasing.

The measures that I've taken are as follows:
changed my hash twice
changed my password
changed my e-mail

None of the above resulted in any progess except once the ip address showed up as 1.1.1.1 that it seems to display when the old hash is used (also saw it on my torrent client once while I was updating the hashes).

Any help would be much appretiated.

this has affected about 70 users and you are the second user to notice.. =)

generally it's taken no effect on accounts, except for additional "snatches" in download history, most of them not affecting the up/down stats.

if you know exactly how bad this affected you, or can estimate, - i am willing to adjust it.

in the mean time i will say, while you posted this earlier and i haven't seen this topic, i do swear i have fixed the problem, and since then you shouldn't have received any new unknown downloads or what not under your account. please, confirm or deny.

this whole mess was caused by old 'real-ip-detector' function, that actually thought ips that started with 1. and 2. were reserved.. maybe it has been this way years ago, but it's not the issue now, so code was finally spotted and fixed.. basically there are thousands of downloads amonhst the 70 users that could travel under any account...

so if anyone's been affected - contact me personally..

well, anyways, i've just cleaned out 6.5k downloads that could have been in wrong accounts.. i am sure noone will care, but anyways... nothing changes, what i wanna say. all wrongly claimed downloads were 'in download' mode..

Good to know it was just a bug.

I did ended up downloading a few torrents just to avoid some hit n runs (one of those was a 11gb one  :-/ )  but since I have no problems with my ratio I will have some fun increasing it with points.

But still currently I'm only seeding 30 torrents (9 of them duplicate since they're on a separate system, but since on the same internet access) and I'm getting 51 active with 41.2% not connectable that I know that aren't mine since all the port forwading has been correctly set up.

Another thing. On the "only show torrents that I seeded" I can see 16 torrents that I don't think I ever touched.

Is there any way to check my seeds like on other trackers? I've searched plenty on times for that option but never found it.

it's been temporarily disabled.

also, tell me, which trackers allow you see peers and seeds, even your own, and i will re-Joyce with you..

anyways, check your user page, there are now links from old design, so looks ugly, but works, right?..

They're pretty easy to identify since all come up as not connectable. I did double check each one and all show up with the following info "you have not downloaded this torrent", even though my name also shows up on the seeding list.

All the remaining seeds are correct (they also show the download date on torrent page), even the ones that come up twice since those are being seeded on two machine.

yeah i saw you mentioned the seedbox. this is some remnants of that "bug". as you remember, it was fixed around 15th, 6 days ago. and these extra peers you seeing, they've been there for the past 10 days. there are still about 35 users carrying ip 1.1.1.1, they are yet to revisit to update that, plus restart their peers eventually..

lets put it this way: somebody's seeds under your account won't hurt you, right, they only add to your upload stats..

also it's funny, is it my doing or what, but the 2.2.1.0 build of utorrent is really popular on tribalmixes.. =) i use build 25110. this also confuses a bit in this situation, cause apparently both you and your impersonator are both using same build of utorrent 2.2.1.0 - 25302.. interesting coincidence... that other person is using port 65000 though.. hehe.. you got total of 6MB for free... hehe.. i will delete these peers now so they won't bother you.. =)

btw, it's a good list of torrents... =)

I know it won't hurt me, but I really wanted to see this : "All 70 Peers Connectable - good job!!"

This is not the only tracker recommending 2.2.1, and also after trying out utorrent 3 with all the ads and incresed resource usage there was not much thinking abou going back to 2.2.1

Thanks, I think that the files that were all the spreaded in 3 computers (there one more for me to check) are now joined in one that's up 24/7, unless there's a power outage.  :-P
