if there ever was a ratio of CPU footprint to usefulness/effective/impact, uTorrent would win that contest with ANY application. It has the footprint of Notepad, yet it has all the features and the ability of a 3 old videostores ...combined!
Vanha ja vakaa oikea Torrentti !!
No probs with 1.8 previous to going to v2.0 beta,the beta 2.0 seems fine & runs ok on my comp tho if your using vista or win 7 it may be a different story as there was at one point reports of crashes etc,tho if the forum is anything to go by that's now sorted,personally i'd give it a go the worst that'll happen is you'll have to downgrade to an earlier stable version,astrange thing is quick launch shortcut still is incorporated in the setup,i spose it don't matter since if there's no path for it in vista & win 7 it won't get created,still i'd prefer it not be automatic all the same even for xp,there are no cons as far as i know it runs perfect for me & is still light weighted
Paras torrenttien latausohjelma. Ulkoasu on hieno ja yksinkertainen. Ohjelma on kevyt kuin höyhen ja toimii kuin unelma.
µTorrent on kyllä paras BitTorrent -ohjelma mitä löytyy! Kevyt kuin höyhen, ei bugeja ja samat ominaisuudet kun raskaammissakin BitTorrent-ohjelmissa! Loistavaa!
If you can nab 1.6 Grab it. i've compared the apples with apples and 1.6 beats the new version hands down. the new version is ok but they stripped the good stuff.
Loistava! Ilmainen, helppo, nopea, pienikokoinen, kaikki tarvittava löytyy, mitä muuta tässä voisi sanoa! :D Parempaa ei ole eikä tule.
Ei ole kaatunut kertaakaan, jatkaa keskeytyneitä latauksia todella nopeasti, ainoa ongelma minulla ollut muutamia kertoja Suomenkielen kanssa...
Parempaa ette löydä, suosittelen, ladatkaa heti... ;)
Aivan paras ohjelma!!! Parempaa saa etsiä ja kauan...:D
Only BT client that works or me!
I use 1.8 beta and it's faster than 1.6 and 1.7 .. <br/> <br/>and the build 10198 work fine with me
is v1.8 any good??
It would seem that getting the latest version of any given software isn't always the best option. I had upgraded from µTorrent 1.6. I'm not saying this didn't work at all, just that no matter how many times I changed them it would ignore any personal settings that I would make. After many attempts I just finally gave up and went back to 1.6.
The old 1.6 up to 1.7.6 versions were sufferable to a remote crash attack so they encouraged everyone to upgrade to v1.7.7+ So, I encourage you to get Peer Guardian with this program and it will alleviate your concerns that v1.6 is the best. It's a good version of utorrent, but if your concerned with privacy I say go with Peer Guardian along side this.
How is 1.6 safer than the latest release?
The ip's mentioned in the entry below are all currently in range of the ipfilter.dat so as long as that is being used in uTorrent, they are blocked anyway.
µTorrent said themselves they didn't discover anything, they just heard from a guy that heard from a guy. Ugh ... ridiculous. <br/> <br/>Ridiculous perhaps but better safe than sorry based on the more informed posts in this thread (of which I'm obviously not a part of.). So, I guess the jury is out and this is their answer or is it?
So is all of 1.6.1 DRM free?
Stay with 1.61 for sure! It'll try and get you to update but click cancel.
Don't download. Go back to 1600. It is safer. uTorrent is CLOSED source. It can not be trusted. Bittorrent Inc. has bought uTorrent, beware. Use at own risk. To be even safer, switch to Azureus.
µTorrent is great...does anyone know when the next stable is expected?
uTorrent 1.6 ** DRM-Free ** <br/> <br/>Hollywood bought up the official BitTorrent client and destroyed it. <br/> <br/>Later, BitTorrent bought up uTorrent. <br/> <br/>They're planning to implement DRM and all sorts of crap in all of the major torrent clients, including uTorrent and Azureus... <br/> <br/>The last good (and safe) client to use is uTorrent 1600 (1.600) which was released before they sold out to hollywood and BitTorrent... but it's getting harder and harder to find it, so here's the file containing the 1600 setup.
PR, Thanks for the heads up on the utorrent issue. I will be removing the 1.7...and going back to the 1.6 stable..
best torrent program around
i love utorrent, it is really easy to use and really fast
Definitely the best BitTorrent client out there

Utorrent 1.6 Standard, the last final build, was done before the company was purchased and the new code written. That version should be safe I believe and is still an excellent client.
The fact that Utorrent is now owned and being updated by people that have signed agreements with the RIAA and MPAA and NOT the original programmer, should give anybody pause.
If you wish to use Utorrent, I'd simply say stay with the 1.6 Standard final version and do not use anything after that release.
I for one do not wish to support ANY effort by someone so chummy with the RIAA and MPAA, period. I don't see why anybody would want to, especially with the original author no longer coding the program. He cashed out and he's done. Whatever happens from this point forward is no longer something he's involved in, I believe.
If the RIAA and MPAA can't kill 'em, they buy 'em and reprogram them. Bearshare, Utorrent, what's next? They are letting their money do the fighting for them and have ruined what was a fantastic product. Too bad it wasn't made Open Source so someone could continue on the work in the right way.
The backlash against Utorrent is not FUD. Simply looking at who bought the program and who is now updating the code should be enough to convince anybody that the Utorrent we knew is gone. 1.6 Standard is the last REAL version of Utorrent. Anything after that is suspect.
Awesome App !!
This software is excellent. Great improvements especailly when u can limit the speed of uplods. I love it.
Keep up the great work.
@davidl1l
If the file is an image file u would need programs like Nero or DVD Decrypter or imgburn to put it on a disc.
hi there i just downloaded this softwear.my q is wants the torrent is done how do you get it on a blank dvd.thank you...
I started using utorrent about a month ago and it is excellent! Especially once you foward a port on your router. I get incredible speeds and it is very easy to use. I don't see myself ever using any other client.
Works well, have used other clients before and this one is by far the best and doesn't take up a lot of space to run.
just went to 1,6 yesterday and great improvments..utorrent ..is THE ONLY torrent program you need ..ease of use and set up and minute memory use and good speeds ..what else do you need..."-)
Best bittorrent client there is. For Java based Azureus is the biggest memory hog. About the only thing it offers utorrent doesn't and won't is plug ins which is hardly a big deal.
This is a AWESOME client, and I haven't gone back to Memory Hawg Azureus (at least not yet LMAO)
I'm loving it!
This is the ultimate small, powerfull BT program
I love this program, simple compact, and doesn't take alot on resources. Good job guys, keep up the good work
