Az uTorrent fejlesztése ismét nagyot lépett, az eddig alpha verziójú 1.9-es ág elérte a béta státuszt, és megkapta a 2.0-ás verziószámot is.

A legnagyobb újdonság, hogy az UDP tracker támogatás immár elérhető a kliensben. Az uTP-t pedig fejlesztették, sokkal hatékonyabb és bugmentesebb, mint korábban. A telepítési ablak is megváltozott, egyszerűbbé tették a speed guide-ot is.

Ismert hibák:

  • speed guid gyakran összeomlik
  • zárt trackeren 404-es hibával tér vissza
