Try update tracker option ..by right clicking the torrent file in utorrent...

try this other method (not sure if it works, but just in case)
1: Move the downloaded file to a different folder.
2: Download the same torrent again. Let it start downloading (even 10-15kb is enough)
3: Put stop on the torrent.
4: Then, move the old downloaded torrent back to where it was (assuming that the new downloaded file is also there). Replace the new downloaded with the old one.
5: Right-click on the torrent in utorrent and Force-recheck.
Does it do it?

@wizrulz, is there any way to update torrent tracker automatically after certain time interval in utorrent ?

hehe! Even I do the same - remove the torrent from the utorrent list and load it again and save it in the same directory as before. I do it out ofdesperation more than anything else and I also believe it doesn't do any good. I use utorrent and just close it when torrent speeds go incredibly low for apparently no reason. If possible I try to get hold of some alternative tracker for the same torrent from sites like isohunt and btjunkie and hope that they work and give better speeds.

A similar situation happened to me once.. I almost downloaded 96% of a 800MB file and it was stuck even there were 100+ seeders and with my ratio above 0.6(while downloading)..
It was downloading but the percentage downloaded was not increasing.. Waited for two days that it might work and even put alternate trackers..Dint worked..I had to redownload the entire file..
