The problems described under update 1 above are entirely outside the control of BiglyBT or the end-user, short of not using the VPN. Similarly, the frequent Windows updates can have the same effect. The never ending battle of function vs security. BiglyBT is a feature filled, open source, bittorrent client. Again, ANY virus software update can cause problems were there were none before.
