Fairly new to this site and I am getting an error message "bad data from tracker-bad bencoded data". I can not connect to download or seed torrents!

Try a torrent on a different tracker. You may be behind a transparent web proxy that's altering the tracker data.

The problem isn't always to do with the tracker although there are some trackers which always do this. (uTorrent is OK for them so why not BT?).

I have noticed that ANY torrent created by utorrent 1.8 also causes this error BEFORE it even attempts to connect to the tracker.

A fix for these issues would be really great as more torrents get created by utorrent 1.8.

The problem isn't insurmountable, other clients can handle the problematic trackers/torrents.

Thanks

JAB
