I`m not an expert when it comes to file sharing and torrents, i know how to upload them as thats easy, the problem i`m having is ive made a torrent and i dont think its working.

Its showing up in my Utorrent software that i`m seeding it but ive not noticed anyone downloading from me, it has a square at the side of the torrent with a white "Up" arrow inside it, other torrents ive downloaded and am currently seeing show a green square with a white "Up" arrow inside it, does the red box mean a problem ?

Does anyone have a list of working trackers that i can use with Mininova ?

 

if it’s person to person, i.e you don't want anyone to see them but select people then use, http://yourip:openport/announce, utorrent is trackable.

If you want other people to see it, I assume you do as you didn't ask for private trackers, then upload to the site so it gets indexed.

Edit:

p: = p : without a space

 

Or just tick the box that says Disable smilies

 

Doh! lol

 

Thanks for the reply, so basically i use this address as an open tracker for any torrents i want to download and just paste it into the tracker box ?

Is their a list of working trackers anywhere that anyone can use that gets updated on a regular basis ?

 

Its easier mate if you just go to..
