So you open a torrent and it starts to download just fine but when to switch to your web browser you can’t get to any websites. It happens in Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, doesn’t matter. Well the fix is easy and a little ironic because it’s caused by Nod32.

To fix your problem all you need to do is right click on the Nod32 system try icon, then click “Advanced Setup…” navigate the tree to “Antivirus and antispyware > Web access protection > HTTP > Web Browsers” and make sure uTorrent and any other torrent programs are unticked (red X).

The problem is that Nod32 thinks uTorrent is a browser and then scrutinizes the traffic as such creating a very narrow bottleneck choking your normal internet traffic to a crawl. It doesn’t effect normal web browsers because of the low amount of throughput they have.
