utorrent 2.0 and private trackers

I will only upgrade when required; when ver.1.8.5 is banned on one of the tracker that I have account. I don't see any need to upgrade when the ver. I use is working well for me.

let me hijack this thread for a second: i'd just like to know the main difference(s) between utorrent 1.8.2.0 (build 14458) and utorrent 1.8.5.0 (build 17414). it looks like many torrenters decided to stick with the 1.8.2, that's why i'm asking.

Its probably because they were to lazy to update lol.
I know mine is 1.8.2.0 because I just clicked no every time it asked me to update.

I just had to reformat my main machine, and I got utorrent 2.0 on my main machine (just to see what the all the talk is about).
I only downloaded a file from bitgamer and It worked fine

well, according to some tracker:

The best, fastest and most recommended versions of uT for usage on a private tracker are

uTorrent 1.8.2.0 (build 14458)
uTorrent 1.6.1 (build 490)

For me it was the least buggy of the 1.8.x versions. I had issues with 1.8.3/4 so I downgraded. Perhaps the final build of 1.8.5 is ok, haven't really tried it.

ok, thanks.

Nothing worth mentioning? :unsure:

I never had any problems with the 1.8.x series, but I have also never used a stable version anymore ever since 1.9 and 2.1 were released. Nowadays I use a mod of 2.1 that emulates 2.0 to the tracker and peers, since pretty much none of the trackers I leech from block that.

this new utp stuff that they're playing with, it is supposed to be the next step and blabla but in reality there is a chance of having problems with it running.. i experienced upload problems with 1.8.5 so i had to turn utp off, since that my 1.8.5 runs just like the good old 1.8.2
