People who want to cheat can probably google their way to it, but remember..

stop bitching about people leeching. everybody knows how bittorrent works and nobody cares if its going to deplete bandwidth from the torrent community. if you want to be super hero of the torrent community why not quit posting on these fucking forums 24/7 about how everyone should have a 1:1 ratio or higher and keep yours at 5:1 to make up for everyone who doesnt seed.

I come to country on boat and get free house and free mobile telephony. I get benefit to pay for my 20mb connection and I get free blank dvd to write pirated film to. Then I sell dvd with nice print cover to idiot people in country I come to for lotsa money.
They don’t mind the head in way of cam filming in the cinema cos they would see that head if sitting in the cinema. So now I am rich and I buy my own country from them and become despot leader and I start new war on everybody.

Flippen cheaters! Seriously, it is not difficult to have a 1:1 ratio on these sites. Just seed constantly and you are more than ok. Some of you make me sick.

[quote comment="95797"]Having a hard time seeding after downloading files from a torrent tracker site? In Malaysia, we do have a decent 1Mb download speed but our upload speed is only 512Kb. In order to get a 1-1 ratio, we’ll have to spend double of the time or more to seed after download because our upload speed is half of our download speed. This is also IF there’s enough seeders to leech from you in order to maximise your upload speed… There is a bug to increase your upload/download/ratio in bittorrent trackers illegally. I call this the bittorrent ratio hack.

The “bug” has been tested on the torrent trackers that use the torrentbits source code (I don’t know if it works on other trackers).
The idea of this this “bug” is that you will sniff your torrent info using the HTTP Analyzer and with Firefox you will update your stats to the tracker being identified as a client. This is a simple and short tutorial that shows you how to do it, if you are “more” advanced you can use other tools to do it.

Programs that you need:

• HTTP Analyzer - http://www.ieinspector.com/httpanalyzer/
• Mozilla Firefox - http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
• User Agent Switcher Extension - http://chrispederick.com/work/firefox/useragentswitcher/
• And an bittorrent client such as µTorrent - http://www.utorrent.com/

Step-by-step instructions:
1. Install the User Agent Switcher Extension (the extension will be used to identify as a bittorrent client to the tracker) to Mozilla Firefox (if you don’t have Firefox, get it!).
2. After installing the extension go in Firefox to:

Tools -> User Agent Switcher -> Options -> Options -> User Agents

Click Add, write “BitTorrent/3.4.2” to the Description and User Agent and then press “Ok”.

3. Then go to:
Tools -> User Agent Switcher and select the newly added User Agent, “BitTorrent/3.4.2”.

4. Install HTTP Analyzer.
5. Get a .torrent file from a tracker that uses the torrentbits source code and add it to your client. (DO NOT START IT)
6. Start HTTP Analyzer and go to the “Start Logging” button, select “Select a process…”, choose utorrent.exe if you’re using µTorrent (Important: If you use Azureus, select the javaw.exe proccess from the list) from the list and click “Ok”.

7. Go into your client and start the torrent.
8. Now go into HTTP Analyzer, there you should see a GET request to the tracker.

Example:

GET /torrents/announce.php?info_hash=%B5%2D%F4%ADM%18%7C%83C%
E9%EC%C8%C7%F7%973%3Fap%15&peer_id=%2DBC0059%2Dp%D1%
FBd%D0%C6%EC%7B%B4%D5q%B8&port=12345&uploaded=0&
downloaded=0&left=0&numwant=200&compact=1&no_peer_id=1&
key=9427&event=started HTTP/1.0

9. Open Firefox, paste into the address bar:
http://TRACKER.ADDRESS/announce.php?info_hash=INFOHASH&peer_id=PEERID&port=PORT&uploaded=UPLOADED&
downloaded=0&left=0&numwant=0&event=completed

replace:
TRACKER.ADDRESS with the torrent tracker address (ex: http://www.filelist.org:81)
INFOHASH with info_hash variable taken from the GET request from HTTP Analyzer,
PEERID with the peer_id
PORT with the port
UPLOADED with an number that you want, in bytes (ex: 10737418240 for 10GB)

Example:
http://www.filemp3.org:81/announce.php?info_hash=%B5%2D%F4%ADM%18%7C%
83C%E9%EC%C8%C7%F7%973%3Fap%15&peer_id=%2DBC0059%2D%C3F%
A4c%C4%0D%D35i%93%93%EA&port=12345&uploaded=10737418240&
downloaded=0&left=0&numwant=0&event=completed

Press enter and then stop the torrent in your client. Now you should have 10GB added to your upload.
The “bug” should work on all sites that use the TorrentBits source code (including filelist.org, torrentbytes.net and anothers).

Note: I know it’s not fair to cheat your upload and download ratio in bittorrent tracker site. It’s best to upload what you downloaded to at least 1-1 ratio. The best way to improve a program’s security is to announce it. This bug is more than 6 months and I am surprised that this bug still worked for quite a few bittorrent tracker sites! Thanks to xyflar@gmail.com for this hack.[/quote]
That sucks! Just get a real & safe leeching program such as http://www.moofdev.org/ratiomaster

The best way to cheat is to modify the source code of your bittorrent client to report back faked amounts of how much you uploaded or downloaded and make the numbers reasonable. For example, you can tell the tracker you’ve uploaded the same amount as you downloaded * 1.5 or something to that effect. You can also make it not seed when you’ve finished downloading the file so you can move on to the next torrent. That’s how I cheat. If you know how to code, you can easily cheat.
