How much time will it take for a certain type of people to prove that uTorrent is earning money from file sharing or piracy as they call it.

This is wrong not only for uTorrent, but for the whole torrent network.

Oh dear even old U-Torrent is turning into a money grabber

Ive downgraded to v.3.3.2 (and used the old turn off ad tricks and it works fine) as the 3.4 series was a bloody nightmare especially on Torrent Leech-it wouldn't execute any torrents!

On the basis of all comment here re the latest version (3.4.2.) I think I will be sticking with 3.3.2. for a while

Greetings to all

As i said few posts above, I'm on build 3.4.2 (build 31515), which is the most latest version and have no advertising displayed. I am not getting how you people still getting ads if you disable sidebar and bundles along with offers.

I still use 2.2.1. It works perfect. This version download and upload torrent with max speed so... why I need 3.x? I do not need :) People. Just use 2.2.1 or other good program like qBitorrent.

uTorrent Plus 3.4.2 build 31893 Stable healed and other modifications - read below



Not my work.



Tested and working.



Other modifications:

-DHT patched to allow DHT usage on torrents disallowing it, also peer exchange and local peer discovery

-Ability to manually re-announce to trackers independent of the usual hardcoded minimum time timer

-Advertising modules stripped out of the binary completely

-Modified so that when a 0-byte Settings.dat file is present in the folder with the binary, it will execute in a portable mode that isnt in the unmodified client


https://www.mediafire.com/?qoijmh3qp0u3ob5



Password: nsane



Misc notes:



Obviously, as the binary is modified, it will say either invalid digital signature or nonexistent. The author of this medicine [the binary is already modified] decided to repack it into UPX or some such as well.



You can overwrite an existing utorrent.exe to use as well, you DONT need to use all the misc files in the archive such as the .dat file or btskin file, just overwrite an existing utorrent.exe and launch and it'll use existing settings fine.
