Can i turn off vpn when downloading torrent

 · Binding your BitTorrent client to the VPN interface acts as a client-only kill switch, preventing it from downloading (and uploading) torrents unless the VPN connection is active. qBittorrent and Vuze are the only BitTorrent clients we know of to support this feature, although it is possible others exist.  · Here are the symptoms: 1. Bittorrent used to work correctly thru VPN and CheckMyTorrentIP displayed the VPN IP. 2. Bittorrent/uTorrent still work correctly when not connected thru VPN. 3. Turning off Windows firewall has no effect on the problem. 4. Trackers appear to work, except for CheckMyTorrentIP.  · Perhaps you want to download a video game ROM when you already own a physical copy. Or maybe you’d rather download MP3 files rather than ripping the music CD yourself. Regardless, you have the ability and right to protect your privacy. How BitTorrent Works. Downloading torrents isn’t as anonymous as it might seem.

Answer (1 of 3): There are special P2P file-sharing servers. Not all servers allow file-sharing and downloads. For example, PureVPN has special heavy-duty servers in Turkey, Brunei, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Russia and many other locations for super-fast unlimited P2P file-sharing and downloading:). Recently upgraded to the latest version of norton (from Norton Security Premium), to take advantage of the VPN. Worked well for a number of months, however, recently when ever I download a file which opens Free Download Manager, the VPN protection turns off, with a message saying something like "Secure VPN has disconnected because a torrent App is running". Do I really need a VPN to download from The Pirate Bay? Yes, you really do — The Pirate Bay itself even recommends using a VPN. The main reason for this is that when you download torrents, you open a 2-way file-sharing connection. You can see the location the torrent is coming from and, in turn, others can see your information.

Answer (1 of 4): “Given that the VPN doesn’t register logs”. That’s a fallacy. All VPNs must register some form of log, it is a basic requirement of how VPN works. Have the VPN running if your torrent client is running. Also check to make sure torrent client is really off and not just minimized to tray. Seeding (sharing copyrighted material) is the punishable offense you're avoiding with a VPN. 4. Start Vuze, and enter the Options menu. Select "Tools" at the top.
