(got this from Comodo's forum-I didn't untick the 'enable UPnP port mapping however and uTorrent works perfectly well with full speeds achievable)ĪLLOW TCP or UDP from IP to IP where source port is and destination port is run utorrent, in Options -> Speed GuideĬlick "Test if port is forwarded properly" Add Network rule for utorrent in firewall (the port must equal to Listening port in utorrent, or the port you chose)ģ. Untick "Random port each time utorrent starts"Ģ. run utorrent, in Options -> Preference -> Connections The Operating System should not misbehave like this.1. I really hope they have fixed things in Windows 7. – If I do a soft reboot (through the Start Menu – Restart), it often gets stuck at the “Logging off” or “Shutting down” screen. – The only way to “fix” this is to reboot the computer, which poses another annoying issue: – Try to end processes with the “taskkill.exe” program. – Try to end the processes with “ProcessExplorer”. Now I have TWO VLC processes in my task manager. – I say “the heck with it” and try to open another instance of VLC. – I open the task manager and sure enough, I can see the VLC process. – I give it a minute or so, in case it’s waiting for something to update or become available, but no cigar.
– The GUI part of it does not appear right away as it usually does. It’s mostly been occurring with the VLC media player. It’s almost driven me to install XP on this laptop, but the damned thing wouldn’t install due to drivers. I get this very annoying issue happening with my system once in a while.
There is also a comment on that blog which explains things in even a little more detail. Every task ends without even having to bring up the Task Manager.Ĭommenter Alan referred me to this blog entry which explains why this error occurs. Free, just like ZoneAlarm.Īfter installing Comodo, I no longer experience this “End Process” error. I uninstalled ZoneAlarm and tried using Comodo Firewall Pro. I’m not exactly sure why ZoneAlarm is the problem, but it is. In fact, the problem was with ZoneAlarm… my firewall software. What made this worse was the fact that while the program in question was in the Task Manager, apparently frozen, you could not start another instance of the program until it was removed from the Task Manager (AKA: restarting the computer).Īfter much aggravation and searching for a solution, I discovered that, in fact, Vista is not to blame for this error. No matter what action you take, whether you click “End Process,” or “End Process Tree,” none of these would close the program, aside from restarting the computer. But, if you were to look in the Task Manager, the program would still be running under the “Processes” tab. For example, many report the problem while using P2P programs such as Azureus or BitComet. A lot of people have been encountering many problems with tasks not ending while using Windows Vista.
