tanusgreystar Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 File:* The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process It's not just one torrent. I tried to download many different torrents and I keep getting this message. What does it mean and what do I do? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassie Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 All right, perhaps I wasn't too clear on what I meant by more detalied information. What version of BitComet are you using? What O/S? Do you have a router/modem? Which one? Is it configured properly? Antivirus? Which one? Firewall? Could you provide a link to where you got the torrent? Has this happened before or just recently? cassie :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanusgreystar Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 (edited) What version of BitComet are you using? BitComet 0.70 but I was actually trying to download the torrents with uTorrent. After I posted my last post I used the BitComet to do the download and it was fine. What O/S? XP Home Do you have a router/modem? Which one? Is it configured properly? Yes, modem/router. Westell Versalink 327W. I tried port forwarding and I can get into my modem, but I don't have a username/password that will allow me to configure it. I called my ISP but all they would do is to offer higher speed. Antivirus? Which one? Yes, AVG Free Firewall? Zone Alarm Could you provide a link to where you got the torrent? I used isoHunt Has this happened before or just recently? recently Edited November 20, 2006 by cassie (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Make sure your copy of XP Home is fully up to date for security reasons. Now, ditch(un-install) ZA and either use the Windows built in or Kerio free. With bitcomet running go to http://www.canyouseeme.org and enter your listen port number. Also, look at the health of the .torrent. If it's below 100% then it will not download what so ever. Had you give a link to the .torrent file its self we could go check it out ourselves.

tanusgreystar Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 How do I find my listen port number? Also is the windows firewall as good as something like Zone Alarm?

kluelos Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 You specified your listen port in your preferences, when you set up BitComet. If you didn't know that you did that, it will probably be worth your time to look at how all of your preferences are set, and to read and follow the settings guide in the BitComet Client Help forum, to make sure you've configured your client correctly.

Dark_Shroud Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Also is the windows firewall as good as something like Zone Alarm? The XP firewall compleatly blocks incoming attacks, pings, & scans. It's a decent firewall and it will probably be easier for you to use while configureing BC. Just allow exceptions and BC will auto add it's ports for you. You just need to allow BC to access the internet and you'll be fine. Zonealarm does not mix with anytype of p2p, it just has problems. It can't keep up with connections and it messes with the tcp/ip stack. ZA also doesn't stop running. You have to actually uninstall the thing because it can't be disabled.
