Hello, I'm having trouble with my VPN, it will not connect due to a 'torrent file running'.
I have not knowingly downloaded any torrent files.
Since the only thing I have downloaded recently was H&H2, I'm hoping you can tell me the name of the file so I can disable or delete it ?
Thanks..

Pretty certain something must have been picked up from somewhere else JnHoward, the download link contains only a Zip file which when unzipped gives you your game files..there’s no torrent file associated with any of OBD,s products. Name of what file mate? The unzipped BHAH2 one? If you deleted that you’d have no backup .(always keep a backup in case your installed game files screw up at any time).

What Adger says, did the file download OK? We have nothing to do with torrents though.

Check your PC with a decent Anti Virus checker. Try an online one initially if you do not have a good one...

Our file is called WOFFBHaHIIBuildP6.zip.
Let's hope you don't have someone using your PC to download files from it, including ours!

The problem was my 'free download manager' was coming on at startup, must be a torrent hiding in there.
all OK now, sorry about that.
Thanks..
