If you're encountering an issue with our BitComet client, why not have a look at our New Wiki.BitComet FAQ. Also, please note that if you post any questions, they may not be answered immediately.


We are aware of issues related to signing into bitcomet passport. We recently moved our Servers, and it will be a while until all the problems are sorted out. This will not effect your ability to use BitComet or your downloading.

icestation, this experience indicates that you did not have the Windows firewall properly configured, and your listen port was blocked to incoming traffic. That would cause the symptoms you experienced.

ZA has a different method of configuring its firewall, so you probably got that configuration correct.

The easiest way to configure the Windows firewall is to let BitComet handle it for you. It will do so automatically if properly set.

ZA has a very unfortunate history with P2P, and of general misbehavior. If it is working for you, great, but if you start having trouble with it, your best remedy is to get rid of it.
