  1. I recently installed uTorrent since I believed it to be a good and trustworthy client without spyware addons or silent malware installs. Somewere in the install process I must have missed the fact that, by installing the uTorrent client, I also installed a Toolbar that appears in all browsers I have on my machine. Some of them even changed my start page. Now, it may be that I just clicked through the install process without paying enough attention to what I really was installing. uTorrent has always been = just torrent, no crap to me so I guess, in my naive trust of a bitTorrent client provider, I did not pay enough attention. So that might explain why I just went through the process without noticing the toolbar install. That's fine. The blame is on me. What is totally unacceptable to me is that I can't seem to rid of this toolbar. I've read through parts of this forum where I see that a lot of users have the same problem. I got rid of it in firefox and IE by uninstalling in the controll panel - remove programs and firefox - tools - add-ons. But the toolbar still appears in Chrome. So my question is - How the hell do I get rid of this piece of crap that I never asked for?! I've already spent hours on this problem. I've removed uTorrent and everything associated with it. Having read the post from the BitTorrent staff, they suggest that a solution to my problem would be to go to this shady downloadtoolbar page, download the piece of crap again, reinstall it on my machine and then uninstall it. Forgive my total lack of trust, but since you sneaked a crappy malware into my machine the last time, it just might not be very problable that I would want to install anything even barely related to this shit. This can't be the only solution?? Please provide the info I need to get rid of it. Also, just out of curiousity, what the h were you guys thinking in adding this piece of crap to your software?? It's like begging the torrent user community to never use your client again. You guys should know better. The whole thing just smells like complete mental breakdown to me. Seriously guys, WTF?? And to you guys who think that type of shit can't take down a torrent client provider, just think about the amount of people that actually took the time to register at this forum and write a post. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
