Damn your right. I just noticed it in the client BCG already banned this version. I'm goig back to ut 1.6.1. Damn i was seeding a game in 1.7.7 i hope i fdon't get int roble had to delete it cause bcg banned 1.7.7.
177 is allowed on most tracker that i use so np here,also give some time to BC or TT becuase they need to test it first lol..:)
yeah its not banned on BCG, it just is not allowed yet.
but i agree this is getting silly, this is twice they they have brought out an update and then a day or 2 later another one.
im sticking to 1.6.1 at least i know thats fine for me.
allow 1.6.1 and 1.7.6 for heavens sake..and leave it like that for some time..
... if only azureus wasn't so resources hungry... i'd switch immediately. as for now i'll stick with utorrent, though it lost all its charm since banning of 1.6.1Quote:

Just food for thought for those of you not wanting to upgrade/downgrade/switch yet.
damn..the rate at which threads are opening up about utorrent we will soon need a separate section for it here on FST
post your cribbings about utorrent here :lol:
i still dunno why they have to hit the panic button everytime a new version is released. 1.6.1 was so safe and nice. still found nothing wrong with it
from the utorrent forums, not sure about the validity, but i'm sure a dev will post about this sooner or later on this post:Quote:

The bug that 1.7.7 fixes IS present in 1.6.1 and will NOT be fixed in a new 1.6.x build."

I'd wait for a post from some one in the utorrent team, but this sounds like reason enough to upgrade to me. better safe then sorry I say.
I'm upgrading now.
EDIT:
Confirmation from a mod, same thread:
"There was some miscommunication when 1.7.6 was announced that caused the changelog for 1.7.6 to initially include 1.6.x as an affected branch (when in fact it isn't affected by that bug). The latest version (1.7.7) actually does fix a potential security flaw that has existed in µTorrent's implementation of the extension protocol since 1.4.
Which change?- Fix: (potential) remote crash bug with extension protocol (affects all 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, and 1.8 builds released to date)"
Time to upgrade you 1.6.1 people, or find a new client.
