  • Also, I only use the SOCKS5 proxy in my client. I never used the desktop app. Perhaps this is why my ISP saw the data?
  • Your proxy was likely misconfigured. You should use Check my Torrent IP to ensure you are connected.
  • If the DMCA notice mentions your Verizon IP address, then the IP address leaked. This can indeed happen if you misconfigured something. Maybe post screenshots of your settings?
  • Thank you guys for the quick responces!
    I checked my torrent IPP with the torrent IP checker was not my original IP adress.
    I attached some screenshots of my settings. Any ideas how they did it?

  • Those settings look alright. You could disable local peer discovery, but that shouldn't make a difference.
    I'm not sure what to tell you here. As far as I know you shouldn't have gotten a DMCA notice with those settings.
    Could you perhaps show us the data part of the notice (not the part with the legal mumbo-jumbo)?
  • Just an FYI: uTorrent does NOT respect your proxy restrictions when it comes to stuff like DHT and peer exchange. This is a known issue in older versions, and I don't know if it got fixed in later versions. I still use 2.2.1, but have have a firewall rule in place blocking traffic to/from uTorrent that aren't to PIA IPs. The method to put rules like that in place will be different depending on your firewall, but rather straightforward.

    Well, the only important information I saw on there was the name of a torrent (that I downloaded) and the date.

    Great point. Maybe my torrent is doing the same thing. I think I'm going to modify my firewall and only allow PIA IPs. Thank you very much!

    Disable features that leak identifying information will prevent BitTorrent from sharing your non-proxied IP throught handshakes with other peers, as well as through DTH.It will also prevent it from handing out your IPv6 address to IPv4 peers and vice versa.

    What was the IP address?
  • DHT is an essential part of the bittorrent network. uTorrent should support the proxy for every feature, not just basic stuff.
    Can someone confirm what uTorrent version were vulnerable to this, or when this proxy issue was fixed? Maybe link to a changelog or post on uTorrent forums?

    This could be it.

  • Well, they don't say that they fixed proxy bypassing for peers/trackers, only for RSS torrent file downloads.
    Still, could be it. Thnx catcher.

    Open up a traffic log and you'll see that this isn't the case. If you use uTorrent via the proxy, you need to have a stateful firewall in place to make sure that you're downloading safely.

    So BitTorrent is lying?
  • Yes and no. uTorrent (note, not the BitTorrent protocol, but the uTorrent program) will happily attempt things like peer exchange and DHT connections outside of the proxy even if you have those options set. It may or may not strip that info from headers so the info it thinks that it is sending may actually not have identifying info. But since those packets are not being sent thru the proxy, they're still coming from your ISP given IP address.
  • We should setup a test torrent with multiple peers working together to deanonymize a client. Spread that around to get many people to try it and identify vulnerable torrent clients/setups. Then we could be sure.
  • Believe what you want.
    Well it's easily tested. Depending on your firewall, you can just look at the outgoing connections associated with uTorrent, and if your firewall doesn't support it, you can always use something like TCPView. This isn't a question of 'the proxy doesn't work.' This is a question of 'the bittorrent client uTorrent doesn't respect user settings.' I still use it instead of other windows clients like qBittorrent, Deluge, and Transmission-QT because of various features that it offers but really wish that the non-bloated versions worked properly without requiring me to monitor connection logs and update firewall rules constantly.
  • This is why I stick to Deluge. It has proxy support explicitly for DHT, peer connections, trackers and web seeds - and it respects them. I used to be a huge qBittorrent fan but when the PIA proxy went down qBittorrent happily decided that if the proxy set up in the options was down, hey let's just use the ISP connection instead. I did post a bug report on the qBittorrent forums but nobody was that interested, which is a shame for such an actively developed program.
    KTorrent is another one. A fantastic downloader and I love how clean yet configurable it is, but the proxy settings are misleading. There is no mention of restrictions in the options dialogs, however if you read the wiki and documentation for the app, it's made clear that the proxy settings apply ONLY to the tracker connections and not DHT, peer-to-peer or other connections. They have no intention of fixing it either.
    Do your homework people, a lot of apps aren't what they should be.
  • I recently started using this VPN, but I still received a DMCA notice from Verizon. I am using utorrent with magnet torrents from kat. Should I switch away from utorrent? Is that the likely issue? Switch to what? If you reply back please speak to me like I'm a child (i.e. make it simple so I will be sure to understand). Thanks.

    From the 'Client Support' page:

    'PPTP/L2TP/SOCKS Security
      The PPTP/L2TP/SOCKS5 protocols are provided for devices lacking compatibility with the Private Internet Access application or OpenVPN protocol. PPTP/L2TP/SOCKS5 should be used for masking one's IP address, censorship circumvention, identity protection and geolocation.
      If you need encryption, please use the Private Internet Application or OpenVPN protocol with our service.'
    The last part 'If you need encryption, please use the Private Internet Application or OpenVPN protocol with our service.'
    Does that mean the socks5 connections are not encrypted at all?
    If so that means that the ISP can still monitor the connection between the computer and PIA (but not PIA to website). It can still see what you are downloading.
    This is just a guess based on what I read on the site. For all I know the connection could be encrypted in some way, in which case I haven't the foggiest idea what's happening to you.
  • The Proxy has zero support for encryption. So yes, Socks5 connections are not themselves encrypted. But they can carry encrypted data if your torrent client uses encryption and the peers/seeds support it too.
  • edited June 2014

    Maybe its the 'Allow legacy incoming connections'. The 'Force' option in uTorrent is to encrypt outgoing connections. Allow legacy incoming connections enables or disables incoming legacy (non-encrypted) connections.
    If this is checked it could be exposing your activity also. However, if your peers/seeds are unencrypted it could also cause problems by filtering them out. If they are encrypted then this shouldn't be a problem.
  • If I switch to Deluge, do I need to do anything specific in the preferences in order to set it up properly?
    This is why I stick to Deluge. It has proxy support explicitly for DHT, peer connections, trackers and web seeds - and it respects them.

    dwk2001,
    may be your ipv4 address leaks while you are using torrent, go to http://dev.cbcdn.com/ipmagnet/ to check and see if it displays your actual ip address.

    ipleak.net has a torrent tracker file to test your ip. but the easiest way to configure your windows firewall is to set up the vpn as a 'public' network and your regular connection as a 'home' network. then allow utorrent to only connect to public networks. add a firewall rule to block 'home' network traffic from utorrent. its very easy. firewall rules should always be used in case your vpn connection drops.
    if you use frostwire, you can go into the options and choose the vpn connection as your network interface. shareaza shows the ip address you are broadcasting in the bottom corner of the frame. good luck.
  • I suggest you change your DNS to a public DNS service such as Google. 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4
    Also switch to Deluge...built-in enabled encryption, you can paste the utorrent trackers the same way, and it's faster because it finds private seeders first vs. slower peers so your initial connections are more safe. Safer because private seeders are usually IT savvy people that are already anonymous through seedboxes or IP addresses that are far away from where they are, by the obvious ability to stay uploading.
    When an ISP or copyright owner joins a torrent swarm, they can log your IP address, verify it to your ISP, and then issue you a copyright notice.
    If you manually adjust your DNS on your router to not use WAN DHCP then your DNS lookup traffic won't be logged by your ISP. That's why you must change it and NOT use your ISP's DNS servers. Most ISPs don't have the spare capacity or employees to packet sniff when you bypass their DNS. When you are using their DNS they can keep logs very easily.

    Using a VPN, using an encrypted BitTorrent client like Deluge, and using a proxy are all negated if you keep using your ISP's DNS servers, for they will have all the logs on you every time you use DNS.
    Yes, the DNS leak prevention by PIA actually works WHEN you use public DNS on your WAN connection.
    DNS won't affect your download speed but it may or may not slow down how long it takes to connect to another peer depending whether the tracker returns the IP of a peer or the DNS name of the peer.
    DNS will only be used to find out the IP of the tracker's server and if necessary convert a DNS name of a peer into the IP address for routing. After that the DNS server is not involved in any data transferred between you and a peer.
    Change your DNS servers on your Internet router and Windows local domain controller if present.
    This should explain the need concisely when the blocking spreads to a city near you.
    Cheers.

  • DNSJumper is a great little tool that makes it easy to find the fastest DNS servers for your connection whenever you want and change them with a click. I also add other server IPs once in a while that aren't on the default list that sometimes are faster than the ones present in the app's list. Here's a link I made for the current version, but you can just Google it just as easy.

  • Sounds like Verizon are jumping in and monitoring your traffic over the SOCKS5 proxy.
    You really should be using the full OpenVPN implementation that way they cannot tell that it is P2P traffic and also enable the 'Kill Switch' so if the VPN connection goes down it kills the network adapter rather than let traffic continue over you normal ISP connection.

Step 5: Go back to uTorrent and repeat Step 1 and Step 2. Step 6: Locate Proxy Server section again, and under Type drop down menu select what kind of proxy server you will be using. In this case, the type will be HTTP. Step 7: Inside Proxy field paste the address of your proxy which you copied in Step 4.
