The UnUsual Suspect Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Are you using any IP filtering programs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kluelos Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I cannot sign in via BitComet client. What happens when you try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r412976 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Thank you both for your reply. @ The UnUsual Suspect -- I am not filtering any IP's @kluelos -- Nothing happens whatsoever. BitComet performs flawlessly except for my account to be continually attempting to login. I can successfully login to any of the Comet "systems" via HTTP. Firebind shows the ports I use as open. I have tried port ranges and random port allocations. I returned to a specific port setting. Since I have attempted regression to previous BitComet clients without success I suspect an error at another level. It is also of interest that I experienced this situation pre and post full system rebuild. I was previously able to login via BitComet on a 32 bit Win7 platform but since going to Win7 64bit Ultimate is when this condition became evident. I have been able to obtain torrents at very high speeds, upto 2720 kb/sec I recall despite the login situation. Why do I wish to login? I want to support community and receive the recognition. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UnUsual Suspect Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 My question was because some members use programs like peer guardian/peer block, and if you install the wrong lists, you'll get this problem. Normally it's very simple, system will automatically or manually log you in, but if it's failing like this, then it does sound like something is blocking the connection. As for the port check tool, it checks for incoming connections on your specific port, but the login is done with an outbound connection, so the only thing I've seen block it are IP filterring programs.
