    So, once i open it, even if i close it, i have to restart to use the internet, it just loads indefinatly...
    other computers on the network can use it, but mine i have to restart...
    And yes, there are legal torrents, and yes, that is what i'm downloading. Legal ones.

    program does not even have to be downloading or have trackers open, the program just has to be running; ill check though

    EDIT: Nope, diddn't fix it

    EDIT: this diddn't help either. And it worked fine 3 days ago :/ which is weird.
