Knightmare Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I'm using the latest version of MBAM along with the latest stable version of uT. Ever since I updated to the latest version of uT, MBAM keeps randomly detecting inbound IP addresses as threats. I added uTorrent.exe to the malware exclusion list and the web exclusion list, but MBAM is still detecting the IPs. I would just add the domains to the list but every time the MBAM notification pops-up, it's a different IP each time. This happened with version 2.2.1 of uT, but adding uTorrent.exe to the web exclusion list fixed the pop-ups on version 2.2.1.Has anyone else experienced this? If so, do you have a fix?

VileTouch Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 yup...and it's right. uTorrent is a malware now. ...no seriously, use something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trance89 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 use a proper bittorrent client like qbittorrent, it's one of the most recommended bt clients, i'm using it on 2 machines and it's perfect on every private trackerutorrent is not the client todays we knew many years ago, it's a fucking bloatware now and there is almost no private tracker that is recommending the newer versions from it...using the old 2.2 version of utorrent is not a solution too because it's many years old, including a lot of bugs and vulnerabilities which are not going to be fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would also lose track of my seeding progress and I didn't like how it didn't save torrent files by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knightmare Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 use utorrent pro and remove ads i have both program and not have this popups ?may be its something u downloading make malwarebytes go mad ?That could be too. I just decided to use uTorrent 2.2.1 anyway. It's simpler for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcs18 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Not a great fan of MBAM - however, can't blame it for the kind of mind-boggling number of IPs that µTorrent calls (even in non-upload, non-download, idling state.) BTW, have just switched loyalties to qBittorrent - also trying out a few other P2P Clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
