Proxy connect error. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

Hello,
Been using proxy via PIA on utorrent for a while now on 2 machines. Today when I log into machine1 and check my trackers, it shows:
Proxy connect error. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

I log into machine2 and no issues there. 
I turned off sock5 on machine1 and boom, everything is back to normal and DLing. Turn it on and same issue and error.

I've tried the following but no success:
uninstalled and reinstalled utorrent
tried 3 different profiles on machine1
installed older versions and newer versions on top of what i currently have 
complete wipeout and fresh install
port forward via router
reboots
firewall exceptions

Am I missing something? Please advise.
