Hi! My problem is that my mtorrent(3.4.5) doesn't see peers since I have downloaded a torrent (magnet link) though on the Pirate Bay site there are indicated many seeders. What could be the solution of this problem, please?

When you use magnet links, the torrent is download from the swarm. This process can take up to 5 mins depending on your connection and on how many seeds does the swarm have (if the swarm is dead and the trackers don't have the torrent cached, it will never download)
The simpliest way would be to reinstall uTorrent and be patient on magnet links.

If you are having problems specifically with magnet links from TPB, then you are likely using a client with no UDP support, or your system is blocking UDP connections.
To use TPB's magnet links, your client needs to support DHT and/or UDP trackers, both of which require the ability to make outgoing UDP connections.
Other sites use magnet links or torrents with HTTP trackers in them, which is why the work for you.
