THE BLACKLIST: RED 3.x, 2.x tba, AB, BakaBT At the very least, set net.discoverable to false under Advanced and disable WebUI, restart client. If you can load localhost:10000 , even if it says 'invalid request', you are vulnerable. Some argue the exploit actually doesn't lead to anything in 2.2.1, and is completely absent from 1.6.1. But that shit's from 2007.
>Not sure what private trackers are all about? The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker service by providing members with opportunities for professional development, by recognizing technical competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.
Remember the following: >Staff occasionally read these generals and have posted here before. >This is a thread for educational purposes only. Don't offer or ask for invites. >Staff may pretend to be normal users asking for invites and when you invite them, they ban you for inviting strangers.
None of that affects 2.2.1, literally the greatest Windows client of all time.
Easton Clark
so any trackers other than ab banned uT yet?
Xavier Bell
the current vulnerabilities do affect it, its going to be cabal blacklisted and you'll be stuck on BLU
Elijah King
read the OP fag
Jeremiah Foster
RED, AB, BakaBT, OT
Nolan Cruz
oops
Adam Turner
from PTP:
>Currently, we won't be banning 2.2.1.
>We will be banning the rest of the 3.x lineup though. There will be an official announcement regarding this (and the actual ban) later tonight or tomorrow.
tick tock utorrent cucks. you are living on borrowed time

If only uBotnet was open source then maybe 2.2.1 could have been forked...

>All versions of uTorrent 2.x and higher BTFO. Good. uTorrent is now synonymous with cancer. There are plenty of great alternatives out there, such as qBittorent. Get onto it. Most arguments made against qBittorent is quite pedantic and superficial. Further points: You know why qBittorent is infinitely better than uTorrent? Because it's 100% open source. I can dive into the code and see WTF's going on. There is no spyware bullshit. No nefarious activity. No ads. No need to fall back to ancient version of the app, just to be safe. qBittorent does what it was designed to do. It is maintained and it evolves. I take that over saving a few MB of RAM on my 32 GB rig.
Oliver Wilson
dont talk about cancer please it triggers me
Hunter Brown
Sorry, but no. qBittorrent is not a great alternative. It's buggy, and uses ten (10!) times more RAM than uTorrent (in my case, 35 MB for uT, 450 MB for qBit), and quite a few other minor things. It sucks.
Dylan Price
new desitorrents any day now!
Camden Gutierrez
Lol. Smh...seriously, what you are on Win98 with 3gigs of ram or something and still using a Page File? I never surpass 200mb of memory and have nearly 1k torrents loaded up.
Jordan Wilson
Has anyone ever gotten a copyright notice from AB?
Leo Taylor
1000 torrents is a tiny amount, 3500 is how many I'm seeding.
Justin Murphy
I am amazed that people still complain about RAM/Memory issues in 2018.
Jacob Mitchell
stop lying. i'm using 100mb with 500 torrents.
Oliver Martinez
Isn't it time for bed, highschool boy?
Aiden Fisher
*Woops I meant 5000 torrents :)
Ayden Gray
Well of course it's going to up when you keep adding more n more. But in this day and age, it's absolutely meaningless unless you're running something powered by two hamsters on a wheel. Even as I monitored shit being constantly added into the client, nothing even budged at all.
I am amazed that people still complain about RAM/Memory issues in 2018.
Benjamin Mitchell
I'm seeding 5x more than you and still not managing to go much over 400mb of ram usage.
Dylan Wood
So when is APL going to step up to the plate? I have heard no announcements from O re. uTorrent
Luis Morris
...
Noah Cruz
uBotnet also uses 100x CPU when it's mining cryptocoins.
Isaiah Long
WebUI is actually off by default in 2.2.1, and without it on it looks like the announced exploits will deadend. Of course RED figures new exploits will come out too, and won't take the chance on WebUI fags.
Christopher Martin
there's also the RPC mechanism, which is different from web UI
Lucas Roberts
You also need to set net.discoverable to false
James Stewart
Which still seemingly deadends.
Jeremiah Collins
What if we all agreed on not exploiting utorrent's holes? It'd be like tipping your waitress so she doesn't go broke. We can't give up on the best windows client!
Logan Long

Bentley Foster
are you beats?
Connor Peterson
Is libtorrent 1.1 actually slower than 1.0? Or has that been fixed?
Austin Watson
>seeding on your computer and not a dedicated machine
Landon Perry
No but I am
Oliver Clark
Pre- 3.x uTorrent is just is too good and there are NO good alternatives. If nothing comes up the communities will revolt if they're left banned. Also, 1.6.1 doesn't even have the underlying vector. So that's running 11 years with no exploits and it's invulnerable to all possible permutations of this one. Looking at 1.6.1, I don't see much of anything missing except https tracker support and the relocate function to point it to a file whose name has been altered.
John Russell
nice summary. thanks
Camden Perez
>seedbox Fag
Colton Campbell
>no good alternatives rtorrent works great and most of the actual seeders use it
Camden Davis
how is file renaming cumbersome? select file, press f2, type new name. same as every windows file manager of the past 25 years
Jose Harris
i hope you are right user. i hope you are right
Anthony Ross
not a seedbox, an old computer that can be left on all the time in your house, free, unlike seedboxes. can you read?
John Jenkins
lmaoin @ u rn
Adrian Perez
utorrent defense force out in numbers tonight.
Angel Davis
all the users the trackers actually need are switching right now, take a look at the forums
Adam Morgan
>dedicated machine >not a seedbox Just because it's a personally owned seedbox doesn't mean it's not a seedbox.
Hunter Watson
using a home connection makes it not a seedbox.
Sebastian Fisher
>command line >Linux >uses gigabytes of RAM for no reason
Ethan Brooks
You are technically correct - the best kind of correct.
Adam Rogers
>command line what did he mean by this? also >using anything other than linux on a server
if utorrent was FOSS we wouldn't be having this problem right now would we?
Owen Mitchell
And it would have been ram hogging library stacking shit all along like the rest of them.
Easton Reyes
I am amazed that people still complain about RAM/Memory issues in 2018.
Josiah Fisher
I am amazed apps waste it for no reason other than lack of ideas and total inefficiency 8 years later. But torrenting is so 2004. We're never getting a better client than 2.2.1.
Xavier Collins
enjoy your blacklist (:
Gabriel Garcia
I'll enjoy transferring to an objectively shittier client so I can continue this dying art of borrowing movies from the Internet.
Wyatt Rogers
Does qBittorrent still look like shit?.
Parker Ross
>the current vulnerabilities do affect it not true
Hudson Baker
friendly reminder that utorrent 2.2.1 is still invulnerable and therefore remains as the best torrent client of all times
Leo Rogers
Legit question. I would enjoy if someone could post a screenshot too. I remember trying it some years ago but the interface was goddamn awful.
Is there something like what posted to make it not look like that?
Grayson Edwards
It looks something like this
Luis Price

If you're on Linux, you can just change your GTK theme

How are you posting without javascript?

>AB completely banned uTorrent >RED banned most uTorrent versions with plans to ban the rest in the near future >PTP banning uTorrent 3.x, possibly 2.2.1 in the future >OT banned all uTorrent versions years ago A new golden age is upon us.
