1.8.1 Release Candidate 1 (build 12549)


Firon

Recommended Posts

µTorrent will never exceed the half-open limit now. Furthermore, the crash on Vista has finally been resolved!

We've worked around the NOD32 issue, but it's still a nasty bug in NOD32 2.5/7 and you should really not use IMON, as the issue could potentially affect any program.

The update tracker restriction has been relaxed when the announce fails. If the announce fails for any reason, you'll only have to wait 60 seconds to do manual update tracker again, instead of whatever the min interval actually was.

If you have a crash, run the uncompressed build and upload the dump files to www.mediafire.com

^^Change: remove "Download Limited" behaviour

Why?

Also, can you please fix queue.dont_count_slow_dl / queue.dont_count_slow_ul, it's not working. I have seeding torrents that don't download/upload at all, but they are still counted in queue and are blocking other queued torrents.

Firon, I would suggest posting in the first post of this topic the goals you want to achieve for ut 1.8.1. It could minimizes people's requests here, instead of requesting in the adequate category, and we could know what to expect from the next version.
