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?
Sct, waffles and what.cd too
DO NOT PM me 4 invites thanks
this is the latest news from hdbits
and this is from what.cduTorrent - 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All other versions (except 1.8b) will be banned in a few days, to keep you all up to date (why use out of date software?)
from wafflesUpdate 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.
uTorrent users: Update your clients. posted by michelle on Jan-18-08
Waffles users using µTorrent must update to 1.7.6 by 1 February 2008. The sooner, the better.
There is a bug that will allow a malicious user to crash your client. There are rumors that it may be even possible to execute code.
I don't know where everyone is getting there information from but yesterday I read that 1.6.x was effected in the change log or 1.7.6 but today it's gone
