Why is my Vuze client freezing when I add a torrent?

A bug was discovered this afternoon that causes Vuze clients to freeze when specific torrents are added (ones that contain .onion tracker announce urls).   The bug was introduced earlier today by some changes in the multi-announce structure used for torrents from a leading tracker site.  The Vuze team is currently working on a fix, and will have it live later tonight (10/14).

In the meantime, you can bypass the bug by going to Tools->Options->Connection, and unchecking
"Prompt for selection when a dl with an anonymous tracker is added."

UPDATE:  A fix has been rolled live to the world (10/14 19:00 PST).   Client restart required to pick it up.
