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*

    • Wow, spoken like a true blind hater, you don't even provide arguments. Please, go check my comment above to @seacaptain and you'll find out why what you say doesn't make sense in this context...
    • Get used to this, with AI tooling now uncovering new vulns and getting them exploitable far faster than has ever been possible before software is going to need to be updated far more frequently. Back in the day it may take reseachers weeks or months to do what AI can now do in hours. Once its a threat is discovered it's weaponsized far more quickly, meaning you simply can't be waiting 2, 3, 4 weeks to deploy a patch, it needs to be patched immediately. Going to be interesting handling this in the enterprise space where traditionally patching has been steady, but very staged (and rightly so up until now), that is going to have to change.
    • You don't need to "close all browser sessions constantly" or wait for updates to install. The updates download in the background while you use the browser, without interrupting you, they install automatically the next time you launch the app. And they install very fast (depending on your storage speeds, of course), you have to wait at most 2-3 extra seconds, if any. Seems like you haven't used Edge in a loooooooong time...
