>>60336537
>using stalled slow open sores

>>60336544
utorrent and bittorrent are both p2p filesharing clients that use the bittorrent protocol. They're two different clients that use the same protocol.

Any retard using uTorrent in 2017 deserves it

>>60336587
yeah but I can't even tell the difference besides green/purple

>>60336188
Jesus people just use Transmission, much more simple no unnecessary features or ads, no viruses.

>>60336188
Why people use botnet uTorrent is beyond me, it's been quite a while since they started injecting malware and other crap in their software.

It's also very well known that uTorrent does this.

you'd think free tards would get the idea of how shit their software is when people are still putting up with malware to not use their crap. transmission is featureless crap. qbitorrent is stalled ugly UI.

>>60336372
Didn't knew but sounds good, thy anon.

Or this:
>>60336660

>>60336678
I dunno, I think having an ugly UI is pretty decent trade-off for not getting infected by fucking malware. I guess Windowsbabbies just fetishsize being digitally pozzed or something.

uTorrent 2.2.1 doesn't automatically redownload deleted torrents
uTorrent 2.2.1 isn't 10 years behind uTorrent 2.2.1, needing update after update written by unpaid Russians hosted on compromised servers to fix bugs introduced by incompetent programmers.

Does utorrent include flash then?

The 3.x.x shit included something to serve up their ads. It may have been Flash. I've never looked into what they used because I've never cared. Why would I use a client with ads when uTorrent 2.2.1 exists?

utorrent became malicious years ago. How did you manage to miss that?

>>60343191
>malicious
No it's not. It just got taken over by barely competent devs eager to add unnecessary features while not really paying attention to the core functionality. Which just puts it in the same boat as qBittorrent.
That's why nobody recommends either adTorrent or STALLEDtorrent.

I can't believe people are so stupid as to use 2.2.1 and claim "oh it's the good version"

Using an outdated software that regularly connects to other users is a bad idea. You probably deserve it if you get fucked by an exploit.

Say I haven't used uTorrent in along time, but have it installed on my PC that I'm currently halfway across the world from. Does this only affect you if you have opened it with the new version?

>>60343638
I use utorrent 2.2.1 and qbittorrent 3.3.10, come at me

>>60343969
well if it doesn't start itself via autostart and you don't start it manually, then how can it possibly run anything?

Comcast can tell if you download torrents with utorrent.

Use Deluge

When's next qbt release? Can't wait to upgrade from 3.3.10.

>>60344363
Just making sure :^)

>>60343700
Oh no, what are they going to do, send me a bad piece? You know what uTorrent does when that happens? It just bans the peer and moves on.

uTorrent 2.2.1 torrents. That's all it does. There ain't much room for "exploit" there, which is why zero have been found in its six years existence.

>>60336188
Is there anyone on /g/ still using uTorrent?

>>60344662
I've used 2.2.1 since it came out and still do to this day.

>>60344701

Nope. Nobody here uses uTorrent, Chrome, Windows. Google, Youtube, Intel, or Nvidia. Don't worry your little freetard AMDrone head about it. We're all exactly like you.

Why tho? Is like you're stuck using winxp when a FOSS version of W10 exists.

>>60344859
Because it just werks. I also remember using a newer version once, but I didn't like how it looked so I went back.

>>60344859
Why do you fags care? It works, it's small and has no ads. It's better than qbittorrent and the ponyfag torrent program

>>60344859
Also I tend to hate using new stuff. I hated going from 98 to XP, going from XP to 7. And I'm not budging from 7. I may go to 8.1 if I absolutely need to.

What did they mean by this?

>>60345182
File size is the least sensible means for comparing bittorrent clients I could possibly think off. It's not even meaningful, because it depends on what OS features the client leans on.

>>60345376
Because there's no support. Unless you disassembled it and write your own binaray patches, you have no way of knowing whether it''s actually safe.

Why does it need support if there's nothing to patch? Nobody's supporting this from TI BASIC:

10 CALL CLEAR
20 LET A=1
30 LET A=A+1
40 PRINT A
50 GOTO 30[/code
