uTorrent 1.8 Beta 9137 - Small Footprint Bittorrent Client

uTorrent 1.8 Beta 9137 (Windows, Freeware, 252KB) [download via Filehippo] is an efficient and feature rich BitTorrent client for Windows sporting a very small footprint. It was designed to use as little cpu, memory and space as possible while offering all the functionality expected from advanced clients.

Changes:

  • Feature: Different download listview settings for RSS categories and regular Torrents
  • Feature: (advanced) option to use tall or short Category list
  • Feature: improve distribution of new connections across torrents
  • Change: open Category list on upgrade to 1.8, if there are any RSS feeds
  • Change: increase tracker interval on failure ("failure message" and HTTP 50X status codes)
  • Change: reduce number of digits on many list and bar speeds and sizes
  • Change: informative error on bind failure
  • Change: slow_ul/dl_threshold affects inactive/active status as well
  • Change: default sort order for RSS categories to 'Added On'
  • Fix: use different UPnP mapping names to prevent UDP mapping overwriteing TCP mapping on some routers
  • Fix: peer.resolve_country
  • Fix: higher scrape count for peers was not displayed in the torrent list Peers column
  • Fix: HTTPS User-Agent for betas
  • Fix: "Invalid Parameter" errors with long path names
