[QUOTE="forgottenuser79643, post: 934879, member: 88069"] I always disable (untick) "use different port on startup" or equivalent on different clients. Whenever I use torrent I also use my vpn service (airvpn) as the only connection, to mitigate some of these attacks. Since they allow opening of specific ports in the client interface, I used that port instead. Even without, it saves you trouble if you look back in your network logs, since port 98765 (example) is the only port used for your torrents. If something funny shows on that port, you know immediately through what it happened. :D [/QUOTE]
