I keep getting this error: socketexception software caused connection abort recv failed

Can someone please tell me what this means and how I can fix it?

Thanks,
Shauna

It means that some software (on your computer) is interfering.
I have seen this on a few occassions and it has involved McAfee Security Center.
With the way security products are expanding their coverage there could be other products that are now causing this.
What is your security setup?

I have Windows Vista with the firewall on, though I've told it that I want to allow Azureus. I also have Avast running.

I have not heard of any problems with the Vista firewall.

Avast's P2P shield has caused some problems, but not the socket error to my knowledge.
It might be worth a shot to exclude Azureus from the shield or disable the shield to see if it helps.
This uTorrent FAQ has instructions for this:

Have you added any new software lately?

Stopping the P2P shield didn't solve the problem. I also tried running Azureus as admin. I haven't installed anything recently. :(

I can only suggest that you try the Azureus/Vuze developer's forum at http://forum.vuze.com/index.jspa

I searched there but did not find much. But hopefully they can figure out where the issue is.
