[qBittorrent 5.0.4] Suspicious background activity
Posted: Sun Mar 23, 2025 12:30 pm
I have faced suspicious background activity exactly when I start any torrent (downloading or seeding) through qBittorrent 5.0.4.
My antivirus software always alerts me that it blocks attempts to IP address 45.84.0.200:44488. This IP is a virus source as per antivirus classification.
This alert appears time to time only when qBittorrent 5.0.4 is launched AND any torrent is active.
DHT is off.
