If you are not using IPv6 for anything (most of us are not), you might disable IPv6 in network settings in Windows.

It is too bad that Vuze does not have the option to prevent using IPv6, as it is currently unnecessary for most of us.

(I do have a IPv6 router, and Vuze works nicely with IPv6 in Vista if Java7 is used. IPv6 NIO is broken in Java 6.)

Hi,

I have the same exact problem. Updated to win 7 x64 and Vuze seems to work fine but after a while it totally kills the connection.
When shutting down Vuze (when the connection is dead), it's still present in the task manager and won't shut down.
I haven't tried utorrent.

EDIT: I have a wired connection.

That is completely disappointing. Java 7 64 doesn't help, nor do any of the files in that link.

Come on Vuze staff 64bit is common. You had the entire time Vista was out to figure this out. Most computer manufacturers don't even offer a new PC with a 32bit OS any more. Really.

For those who are having these problems uTorrent seems to work without fail. It is not as good as Vuze but if you simply plan to download torrents and seed, it works.

Are you running any software firewalls?

I have been using 64 bit windows since XP, and been using 64 bit windows 7 for months now, first with the RC then finally with the RTM build. I also sell computers for a living. Fact is your statement is complete and utter bullshit. As far as consumer PC's go, less than 5% of all manufacturer builds worldwide come with a 64 bit copy of windows pre-installed by the manufacturer. Even with business machines, that figure still woudn't be any higher than 10% at the most, and those are still exxagerated percentages in my opinion, its more likely about 2-3% consumer and maybe 5-6% of business machines, notebooks or desktops. That may well change in the next couple of years as for the first time a consumer level user may actually start to need more than 2/3gb of RAM for reasonable performance, but its unlikely that the "MOST" pc manufacturers wont move the majority of their range to 64 bit until just before Windows 8 is launched, which is rumoured to be a 128 bit build, so there may be no 32 bit or 64 bit anymore after windows 7 anyway. Check global PC sales figures from any half assed reputable source you like, but your statement is complete and utter tripe, stop pretending like every man and his dog runs 64 bit when virtually no-one does yet still.

I'm simply trying to point out that 64 bit windows is not commonplace so unfortunately official support for apps and hardware does lag behind and users like us are forced to bear with more errors than with the equivelant 32 bit version as a result often. Trying to pretend that 64 bit is the norm though in order to try and make a manufacturer of a torrent program provide support faster is just plain silly though, you're the one who went away from the core topic here, I simply pointed that out my friend.
