Default µTorrent 1.7 released

1.7 stable is finally here, after months of development.

The biggest changes were full Vista support and the removal of the 65,536 piece limit for torrents.
Also added was support for finding local peers (peers on the same LAN) and optionally not having any upload restrictions for them.
It is also possible to turn on automatic updating for betas now, found in the "Other" section of the preferences.

Read the changelog for more!

Nopes , not happening here .

Global download rate and per-torrent download rates are independent of each other here .

try deleting all the settings ans starting with a fresh setup

Hey, wasn't uTorrent taken up by BitTorrent people or am I mistaken or have I had some misunderstanding?

I got the update prompt today. They should allow customised speeds settings. Bandwidth allocation speed is of no use to most Indians because of slow connections

saurav, naa. Right now I don't download much with the Mac. So Xtorrent or transmission is fine. uTorrent for Mac does look great though...

Again, if you don't have facts to back your statement, stop spreading misconceptions.

Speaking from personal xp.. I dont need to save all the error logs just to provide the FACT to the forum..

If you do that.. Simple line

GET SOME LIFE!

Are you lawyer or what? I am not in some sort of court.

Don't know but sounds stupid... Its like I watch a movie and I say I didn't like the movie..

and you will say give me a proof.. Are you serious???
Movie sucks .. simple statement from me. YOu like the movie, cool!!!
Same happens with every software.. I don't consider being super fan of any software.

Same goes about whatever I post.

Enough Negativity. Hope you keep thing positive.. I will ignore any stupid statements from you in future. Hope to have some Integrity from you in future.

Nothing big.. Just Microsoft Defender is checking your utorrent usage. It may stop you from downloading large torrent. May not happen with every PC. But if you are getting Pirated software.. Microsoft has logs to provide the proof of the action..

check your Logs. Use software called Spybot Search & Destroy. You will find some part of your computer usage is being uploaded to Microsoft server and it will treat that software as bot by new definition.

If you cannot prove something you say then don't say a lie.

Just back whatever you say with facts, don't just say something just cos u r unable to understand it.
