Can not connect to myself.

Hello there. I seem to be having some issues with this program. Before we start, I'm on Windows 7 32-bit, so no need to ask.

In this image, you can see my Utorrent version is 2.0.2 and that I am unable to connect to 127.0.0.1. Which happens to be the proxy address I set in my next picture.

I have tried using localhost as the proxy, and using my own local IP and router IP, both gave failed to parse, so I figure those are not what I am supposed to give anyway. The only reason the upload speed is set so high is so I could see whether the program was working regardless of that error. It is not.

I have tried all of this with and without PeerBlocker running, as you may have noticed I marked that as well. I also added all the ports I am using to my firewall and antivirus exceptions list.

I am stuck and any help would be appreciated. And yes, I looked through the topics, but I could not find one mentioning they were unable to connect to their own proxy address.

That looks like one of the trackers registered in your torrent file is having a localhost address. This is nothing to worry about, just ignore it. There's nothing wrong with GreedyTorrent here. As you can see, one of the other tracker request has gone out and updated the ratio with success.
