"If you have the latest utorrent, please uninstall the program and run a full virus scan on your computer. There are reports that an ad on Utorrent uses a flash exploit to install malware on your computer without your knowledge. No reports for Bittorrent, seems to be only affecting Utorrent users. We will keep you updated"

Source?

what if i have them disabled?

This came through on a Discord Server announcement about a minute ago (CrackWatch).

Don't risk it.

Expect more detailed information to come through in the next hour or so.

3 hours ago on /r/utorrent, someone has posted their virus software was being triggered by utorrent. Cannot uninstall it at this time according to another user.

Works on my machine. Defender will protect me

Been using 2.2.1 and never looked back.

Sup Forums just saved me a big headache today...

Enjoy your CVEtorrent program

Ad servers are a separate entity to the application itself. Think of it as a website with nothing but ads. It serves it to you on cycled basis. Still run a full system scan.

lmaoing at ur lifes

what's the difference between utorrent and bittorrent anyway?

Do people actually still use utorrent? Why would they when qbittorrent exists?

UI mostly

>using stalled slow open sores

utorrent and bittorrent are both p2p filesharing clients that use the bittorrent protocol. They're two different clients that use the same protocol.

Any retard using uTorrent in 2017 deserves it

yeah but I can't even tell the difference besides green/purple
thanks doc

>using wangblows

LMAO

Jesus people just use Transmission, much more simple no unnecessary features or ads, no viruses.

Why people use botnet uTorrent is beyond me, it's been quite a while since they started injecting malware and other crap in their software.

It's also very well known that uTorrent does this.

you'd think free tards would get the idea of how shit their software is when people are still putting up with malware to not use their crap. transmission is featureless crap. qbitorrent is stalled ugly UI.

Didn't knew but sounds good, thy user.

Or this:

I dunno, I think having an ugly UI is pretty decent trade-off for not getting infected by fucking malware. I guess Windowsbabbies just fetishsize being digitally pozzed or something.

>not running literally any other torrent client

>transmission is featureless crap

What do you fucking need from your torrent client other than download+seed fucking torrent with it?

>using transmission in 2017
ew

Beats getting shitware bundled with my torrent client.

/discussion for all time

download sequentially, graphs etc.

I can't speak for qBittorrent, but utorrent was slow as shit compared to deluge.

Use something more fancy then, I won't hate on it, unless it is some ad riddled shitware like uTorrent.

why does anyone use utorrent?
deluge is nice and also easy to set up and run

people use utorrent because 2.2.1 was good

It is simply what people know, deluge is much lesser known, that's all.

so basically tixati or ugly as sin slower stalled qbitorrent the only other feature rich client

>using 2.0.4
>no ads

Feels good.

I don't know what your needs are, I never met anyone who wasn't satisfied with Transmission yet. (IRL I mean)

I've been torrenting since it became a thing. other programs have always been cheap imitations. I need utetris

The qBittorrent gui is exactly the same, what makes that windows98UI and this better?

>running programs with ads
>running programs with fucking flash ads
There's dumb, and then there's uTorrent users.

the icons are ugly and the ui is busy

Does 2.2.1 have ads? I changed the UI to have just about everything hidden.

No.

This. I keep telling my normie friends to get rid of uTorrent and their answer is always "I don't care, you are annoying".

>based Flash still trolling the computer illiterate all these years later
is there anything Adobe cannot do?!

uTorrent 2.2.1 doesn't have ads.

2.2.1 is the good one right? That's the one I've got installed. After I heard about them mining for coins.

>using windows
>using utorrent
>using flash

they deserve it

uTorrent 2.2.1 doesn't sit there STALLED, it connects.
uTorrent 2.2.1 doesn't delete your downloads on an unsafe shutdown
uTorrent 2.2.1 doesn't automatically redownload deleted torrents
uTorrent 2.2.1 isn't 10 years behind uTorrent 2.2.1, needing update after update written by unpaid Russians hosted on compromised servers to fix bugs introduced by incompetent programmers.

Graph of last 10 hours. My connection doesn't go any faster.

>ads in software now serving malware
>mfw Windows 10 is next

Just disable the ads Jesus Christ.

people still use utorrent? what is this 2009?
jesus the redditors are out in force today

U S E D E L U G E

You only need to look at Sup Forums and the faggotry there is amazing. It's sad how tech illiterate Sup Forums has become.

No other client has yet managed to equal 2009 uTorrent.

hey guys I use vuze pls give criticism thanks

Does utorrent include flash then?

The 3.x.x shit included something to serve up their ads. It may have been Flash. I've never looked into what they used because I've never cared. Why would I use a client with ads when uTorrent 2.2.1 exists?

Holy shit

I uninstalled uTorrent when it became malware by including ads in the first place

>having uTorrent installed in the first place

2.2.1 mustard race
although at 1453 loaded torrents it catches a hiccup sometimes

wish it would automatically add trackers though

??

as far as I can remember tixati wasn't allowed on private trackers because some shit could be spoofed
also apparently it was maintained by a ponyfag

I remember when my install was that young.

my install is from 2012, although it has reset it's stats few times when it wasn't shutdown properly.

???

utorrent became malicious years ago. How did you manage to miss that?

>malicious
No it's not. It just got taken over by barely competent devs eager to add unnecessary features while not really paying attention to the core functionality. Which just puts it in the same boat as qBittorrent.
That's why nobody recommends either adTorrent or STALLEDtorrent.

Isn't flash force installed on Windows 10?

You ever look at your peer list on a public torrent? It's always mostly utorrent for me.

Then what client am I even supposed to use?

RSS, webui

>good

>people willingly using malicious software out of laziness or stubbornness to try something else

There's no hope for any of you

Your welcome

I can't believe people are so stupid as to use 2.2.1 and claim "oh it's the good version"

Using an outdated software that regularly connects to other users is a bad idea. You probably deserve it if you get fucked by an exploit.

It doesn't affect older versions, you shitskin.

>what is reading comprehension

>p2p connects to other users
No fucking shit you retard

do you actually have a point or are you just shitposting

Say I haven't used uTorrent in along time, but have it installed on my PC that I'm currently halfway across the world from. Does this only affect you if you have opened it with the new version?

I use utorrent 2.2.1 and qbittorrent 3.3.10, come at me

well if it doesn't start itself via autostart and you don't start it manually, then how can it possibly run anything?

Comcast can tell if you download torrents with utorrent.

Use Deluge

When's next qbt release? Can't wait to upgrade from 3.3.10.

Just making sure :^)
