To those who want to see, which IP’s uTorrent blocks in real-time…
1. Go to the “Logger” tab in the main screen of uTorrent.
2. Right below the “Logger” tab you will see the informational field, which might (or might not) have wording similar to this:
[2009-10-30 19:32:17] IPv6 is installed
[2009-10-30 19:32:17] Got Teredo Address:
3. Just right-click anywhere in that field with your mouse and select “Peer Traffic Logging” -> “Log blocked connections”.
4. Watch blocked by uTorrent IP addresses popping up time to time. Enjoy!

P.S. Here’s the screenshot of what needs to be clicked as described above: http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/3505/utorrentar.jpg

Writing to C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\ipfilter.dat
:: Error in WriteFile: Bad file name or number, file=C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\ipfilter.dat

Am I the only one who noticed?
C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\ipfilter.dat probably doesn’t work because there are TWO(2) \\ after the word Users..try putting your username between them!! i.e.:
C:\Users\Fred\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\ipfilter.dat

i am getting some errors when i run the blocklist manager wondering if you could help? usually looking start something like this:

::Error with blah blah (file name)

i can get the actual code for you if you need it.

uTorrent is 32-bit and so is Blocklist Manager. If uTorrent will run on your computer, so will Blocklist Manager.

Blocklist Manager doesn’t contain trojans. Your antivirus must be giving a false positive (in that case, try using a better antivirus product like Symantec if you want to go corporate all over the place or avast if you want something free).
