what sites ban latest utorrent builds

[shurato]

This is crazy. I can't keep up. I just use utorrent 1.6.1 just to be safe.

Um, are tons of private trackers threatening to ban you if you don't upgrade? At least i remember seeing that warning on a couple of trackers i use.

Most tracker won't ban the user they only ban the client so you can't download announce or upload so really theres no need to cry yet

I've said it before, i'll say it again, even if trackers are not banning 1.6.1 now, they will soon. This is my opinion, but all signs point to it being vulerable too, so take a chance if you want but theres no good reason not to upgrade. Its safer and trackers allow it, so why not upgrade?

Yeah, that makes more sense.

dont you mean 1.7.5??

Some trackers are talking about banning the 1.6.x's as well, but are hesitating because of all of the bitching that will follow.

I just upgraded to 1.7.6 (had been using 1.6.1 for ever) and have had no probs. Switch was easy and painless.

uTorrent - 18/01/08

uTorrent 1.7.6 is out, get downloading it Fixes a vulnerability with all other versions of utorrent that potentially allowed
someone to crash your utorrent.
All other versions (except 1.8b) will be banned in a few days, to keep you all up to date (why use out of date software?)

and this is from what.cd

Update uTorrent to 1.7.6 posted on 01/18/08 12:41AM by ?
The staff at What.cd highly recommend you immediately update to 1.7.6 if you are using the uTorrent client. There is a bug that will allow a user (or agency) to remotely crash your client. The uTorrent team state the flaw affects all older uTorrent versions 1.6 and 1.7.x. too but have been quick to respond, releasing a new build - uTorrent 1.7.6 (build 7859) which has fixed the issue.
