    preferences -> advanced -> webui

    is everything blank there? if not then clear everything. If web interface is enabled and you've set a password then I'm guessing that is your problem

    If your IP address is 122.200. 64.24, I think someone tried to access your utorrent client through http... in particular, through webui. Probably, utorrent logged an error because the "hacker" entered the wrong username/password combination.

    Yeah, I'd suggest disabling webui... or, if you use it, to change the listening port, since you need to know the listening port (one of ~65536 ports) in order to successfully elicit a response from webui. To me, it looks like you have enabled the default port, 8080, which is a big security No-no, since utorrent didn't specify the port in the log entry. It's like keeping the password of your linksys router as "admin." Everyone knows it.

    You might want to change your IP address, too

    forum.utorrent.com

    Yeah, let us know how it goes
    Humanity has in the course of time had to endure from the hands of science three great outrages upon its naive self-love: the discovery that our world is merely a speck in a vast universe, that we merely descended from lesser animals, and that our conscious minds sometimes lie to their very selves about our actions.

    this is what i got from froum utorrent

    Hack your computer? No
    Hack your µtorrent? Yes

    Hackers could bruteforce, man-in-the-middle, lucky guess your webui password if you have it enabled. This is NOT real easy.
    what should i do??
