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*
