qBittorrentEE

The configuration for qBittorrent Enhanced Edition (qBittorrentEE) is identical to qBittorrent, with some additional options.

Additional Options

ShadowBan

qBittorrentEE provides a ShadowBan API, which replaces the traditional IP banning mechanism of qBittorrent. This feature requires qBittorrent Enhanced Edition version 4.6.6.10 or later.

warning

Use the ShadowBan feature only when absolutely necessary. Misuse or accidental overuse of this feature may make your behavior similar to malicious leech clients.
Additionally, there’s a high likelihood that you may reach your ISP’s connection limit and disconnect yourself before fully overwhelming malicious leechers. Modern leech clients often disconnect when they don’t receive upload data for an extended period, significantly reducing the effectiveness of this feature.

This can result in a "kill 100 enemies, lose 1,000 of your own" scenario. Use with caution.
