What is your Antivirus software?

Oh I'm sorry, I was sure I put that information there 😅 It's BitDefender.

I can not verify the issue. If other users report the same problem I will blacklist the tracker.

I will blacklist the tracker.

Like the fake seeder trackers you won't blacklist?

Sometimes fake seeder is due to the implementation of software. If this phenomenon is not enough to affect use, then I don't think it is necessary to list the blacklist.

These lists are used by thousands of users around the world. One complain is not enough to blacklist a tracker. Anyway, a tracker can not be dangerous by any means. The worst case is the tracker returns fake peers and that is already managed by Bittorrent clients. They only get a small number of peers from each tracker and they only try to connect to each peer once. The overhead of having 1 in 100 trackers returning fake seeds is negligible.

I still think that tracker is not dangerous but I'm blacklisting anyway. There are much better trackers.
