>>> Seeds & Peers & 666?! WTF?! <<<

Post by TomSwiftSenior »

I'm not sure where to post this, because I don't know what is going on.

I downloaded and installed qbittorrent_4.6.0_x64 yesterday (Oct. 23rd) and I found I suddenly had a *large* number of torrents (from *different* sites!) that ALL have Seeds and Peers numbering 666! >:D

I know it is near Halloween, but what the heck?! :o

So I reinstalled version 4.5.5x64 — and things went back to normal.

Does ANYONE have a solution for this?

Or at least explain WHY this is happening?!

See: viewtopic.php?t=11083

You even posted there. It looks like a tracker is sending back this false information/number.
There is no "666" in the qBittorrent or the libtorrent source code.
