ipfilter & 2x utorrent for 1 file question

[zakazak]

Hi, could the use of an ipfilter.dat also cause slower download speeds because seeders are getting blocked?

2nd:
i would use a homeserver + my laptop for torrent. all torrents are on the same hdd and both utorrents (laptop and homeserver) would use the same hdd and the same files. Could i get banned for that? So 2 utorrents would seed the same file (from one ip).

thanks

1. maybe
2. make sure the tracker's staff knows about it and you shouldn't get in trouble

1. maybe.. hmm should i leave the ipfilter.dat stuff alone on tracker like TL,bitsoup and bitfactory? :S

2. okay will do

a new question:

3. i normally use utorrent 1.6.1 (all tutorials say its better than the new ones.. i dotn know why :S). Is this fine ? Also will it support download/seeding torrent via network paths (so a hdd whith is shared in my network) ?

thanks

@edit:
oh and 4. if i use 2 u torrents on the same download folder, will the second utorrent reconize that there is a new torrent when i download it with the first utorrent?
