jasongnome Posted October 21, 2016 Report Posted October 21, 2016 utorrent is currently nagging me constantly to upgrade. I don't mind being informed of an upgrade, it's useful, what I DON'T want is to be nagged several times every day, I know there's an upgrade, when I have time I'll do it. But one program or another seems to want to upgrade virtually every day these days and if i let them all upgrade when they want to I'd never actually get anything done. The most annoying feature of the current nagging is that it opens a new tag in Firefox by itself taking me to the utorrent page. I don't want to be interrupted from what I;m doing by constant upgrade nags. It's annoying and rather than encourage me to upgrade it encourages me to look for a different torrent client.
jasongnome Posted October 21, 2016 Author Report Posted October 21, 2016 I have version 3.4.7 (Build 42330). I'm on Windows 7. I downloaded it directly from the utorrent site, I've been using it for years and upgraded regularly. This is the first time I've had this. When I just opened it I got the nag again (don't mind that, a reminder on opening is no bad thing), but it also opened up a new Firefox tab advertising your app... http://www.utorrent.com/intl/en/prodnews/?uid=ue1-12b0dc7c8d964ce7a7eb213d395dff77 This is just annoying, it;s not even the upgrade, just advertising something else. I live on a small island with a "variable" Internet connection and I'm currently "between computers" so I'm using a slow laptop borrowed from work. This morning when I posted, the behavior of opening a new tab actually crashed the laptop while I was trying to download from my e-mail.
