So I go to a website to fix it and it says this:

The command line that Windows sends to the BitTorrent program is stored in the registry, with the file-type association for TORRENT files. It can be changed as follows:

Go to Folder Options in the Control Panel. Select the File Types tab at the top of the dialog. Wait a moment for Windows to load the list, then scroll down and select the TORRENT extension. Tip: press the 't' key to jump to entries starting with t. Note: The file extension column might be truncated to just TORR... Click the Advanced button. In the list of Actions, select open, probably at the top of the list, then click the Edit button. The contents of Application used to perform action is the command line. By default it should be:

"C:\Program Files\BitTorrent\btdownloadgui.exe" --responsefile "%1"

Note the double-quotes around %1, and your Program Files directory might be different. To add more command line parameters, simply change this string. For example, to change the port range, you might use:

"C:\Program Files\BitTorrent\btdownloadgui.exe" --minport 10000 --maxport 10100 --responsefile "%1"

See this section of the FAQ for a list of all the available command line arguments and their defaults. Finish by clicking OK to close all the dialogs.

I go to the point where it says this: Click the Advanced button. But I have no Advance Button! What do I do please help me!

What do you mean refresh it?

-- Anonymous, August 26, 2003

You can't refresh the thing I need. The Advance Button isnt there. And only Ok and Cancel are the only ones you can click on. The other ones like Change and stuff are grey.

then hit "ok" it will probably reveal the advance button

When I click ok it just quits the screen and goes back to my desktop, it was as if I pressed Cancel.

maybe theres a virus on the site that someone planted or smtng

There isn't a virus because it is just a site that helps people with their Bittorrent errors. I actually found the site that almost fixed my Bittorrent becasue I was reading one of these threads and someone was asking why this Arg thing showed up like me, but I guess he has a Advance Button unlike me :(
