Downgrading is the only solution right now. And since no one can do anything about it, I encourage everyone else who experiences problems to delete µTorrent, and re-install version 1.7.7 or thereabouts (or the most recent working version for you). Until they fix this new version full of... Wait, I'm having a thought: This could be a policing action taken by BitTorrent's developers, much like AVG will "find Trojans" in cracked programs when there are none. I certainly hope that this is not an attempt at becoming the moral police.
