Thanks for the notification. Updated, working nice so far. Just the icon looks kinda dump, I like the one posted here much more.

No need for being a smart ass. Everyone know's that its a special character that only cool elite people such as yourself know how to type. All aboard the fail boat. Bye.

Does it matter? IPv6 is the future, you could ask the same, Vista supports IPv6, why would it?

Dumb question.

downgraded to µTorrent 1.7.7
#10.1 DaveBG on 11 Aug 2008 - 14:27
What made you do such a mistake - downgrading?
The new version is so much better!

It's not that hard to type.


and yet you've managed to mistype it.

Small hiccup from Firefox, settle down.

All aboard the overly-used single joke train. You've been saying nothing but negative & whiny comments during this entire thread. I made a simple mistake and admitted it, please grow up.

Sheesh are you immature and trollish. µ is really easy to type. As in, very, VERY easy. That you don't know how to type it and that you keep whining about it really shows how much you epic fail.

A buttload of people who love to collect and share live shows from taper-friendly bands, that's who.

You mean rapidsuck? No, sorry, that's not a replacement for torrents. Not even in the same league.

Money? I like it free - thanks.

And everyone uses torrents FYI. I guess you were left out of the loop

Check all public trackers and plenty of private ones, a lot of people use torrents.

All to their own.

speed wise it blows torrents out of the water. Best I ever got on a torrent was 512kb per second. With Rapidshare I can get upwards of 1.8 megs per second. Plus you don't have to turn around and share any crap.

and please don't use the free service rapidshare offers as a comparison. Because the free service really does blow.

To bad the built-in update search in 1.7 doesn't find the new version. Either way, it's always nice with updates to this piece of great software!
#14 +DrunknMunky on 12 Aug 2008 - 18:47
Yeah I checked for an update within 1.7 and found nothing. Thanks for the heads up though
