It would be interesting if someone could analyse the code to see if the buy-out had had any impact on this program, i.e. RIAA/MPAA spy code, DRM etc.

I understand your worries, but I am sure that they would have disclosed something like that if they had to do it. Otherwise if someone down the road determines that the software is spying on them it will essentially ruin all of their reputation.

Yep, Richard is exactly right. Unfortunately WordPress has no easy way for retrieving the actual number of comments. Heck, it even takes a small hack to separate out the trackbacks from the comments.

The only ‘feature’ I need from utorrent besides what it gives me now is a boost in speed. I have a feeling that’s not likely coz v.1.6.1 seems to be utilizing my bandwidth to the max. I foolishly tried more than one beta and always ended going back to the stable version coz the speed dropped drastically. Even after moving to the “Final” version these guys seem to be releasing newer builds all the time.

I haven't really noticed any degredation in speed with the new version, in fact I think it is a little better. My entire Internet doesn't hose up as bad as it used to when downloading Torrents.

Well someone should do a thorough analysis and bring out the truth. Like this gentleman, i too have have similar doubts. But if utorrent comes out clean, i dont think any competion can come near.
