Sweet!!! always lookin forward to a new release. Not that theres ever anything wrong with previose ones, lol.

The title is wrong though, Had me all excited, till I seen it was an old version number, then I seen that there was a newer one, and then an even newer one.

Anyways, right on, uTorrent rocks.

I had to give up on uTorrent because of a conflict with NOD32 3.0. I contacted ESET customer support and they were unable to solve the problem. I'm back to the official Bittorrent client, though it's improved a lot since I last used it - and yes, it is quite strange that it works when it's effectively just uTorrent renamed. *shrugs*

    • There is a lot of reasons not to use Edge but faster fixes and security updates is not one of them.
    • Can't reproduce. I installed Edge, went to neowin.net > accepted the cookie consent > used menu to go to forums, everything loads and I can browse around the forums. If you can't interact with the dialog on the forums for some reason, go to the main site and accept the cookie consent there? It is true that the site will not function properly until the cookie consent is accepted or rejected,. it's a legal requirement and I also know that certain VPN/ad blockers block it, which is a user related issue and not a neowin.net problem.   This is not our cookie consent dialog.
