Get a Secure IP Filter For uTorrent ~ P2P Heaven

My previous post showed you how to block most unwanted IPs, and if you've followed that tutorial, you won't need to do this one. But doing both the previous method and the following one will keep you completely safe from virus-infected files and seeders.

This method is mainly used for uTorrent, and it will only work for it. If you're not a heavy torrent downloader, I don't think you'll need to follow this guide at all. What an IP Filter basically does is it blocks most spyware torrent uploaders from being able to seed to you. If you start downloading a torrent from one of these blocked uploaders, the IP Filter will automatically stop downloading the torrent.

This can be very useful, because nowadays there are a lot of bad uploaders who just want to spy on other people or break down their computers with a deadly backdoor trojan. Hopefully, this tutorial will show you how to completely block these bad torrents and keep you safe from spyware and viruses.

1. Download the latest IP Filter from here.

2. Go to Start>Run and type %AppData%/uTorrent in the box.

3. Once the folder is open, copy and paste the ipfilter.dat. Make sure uTorrent is closed when you do this.

4. That should be it. To make sure your IP Filter is working properly, open uTorrent and click on the Logger tab.

5. Right after you load uTorrent, a message should appear in the Logger tab, similar to the one in the picture. If this does appear, your IP Filter is working perfectly.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and learned something new. If you have any questions regarding this tutorial, please feel free to post a comment.
