Bug Description

As an experiment I used ktorrent to create a .torrent file without a tracker but with a web seed. When I open the .torrent in ktorrent it does not down load the file. The Webseeds tab shows "Resolving hostname <host>".

When I load the same .torrent in to Transmission it downloads the webseed successfully.
