that's ridiculous, I'm glad im not a member there. that means noone with vista can use digitalhive, unless they want to use a utorrent that isnt fully compatible. isnt 1.7.5 the standard utorrent?

(i also didnt upgrade to the newest version because i assume some trackers wont support it right away)

I'm tired of these private trackers dictating which client I use

**pandabear** · 01-18-2008, 06:15 AM

Then don't use private trackers...

due to the new bug report, utorrent 1.7.6 will be safe on most trackers

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

i also use 1.6.1 and will keep using it as long as possible.
the question here is that the most recent versions include some callbacks to their site and there is a fairly high possibility that they use it to monitor what you download. I am not touching 1.7.xxx until there is absolute sure that newer versions haven't this callback.
