So does this count as a "bug" then? your new 3.4.9_43388 update, the utorrentie.exe is trying to get me to put in my windows username and password in to a window title "web helper" and call "microsoft". 
"the server security-host-scan-service.in is asking for your username and password blah blah blah, call 0-800-046-5273 etc"
not cool.

it came up sometime between 12 midnight last night and 11am this morning. it was being done by the utorrentie.exe file in AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\updates\3.4.9_43388    disabling the program through task manager made the pop up "web helper" window go away and the adverts in utorrent break when i do that too. restarting utorrent or waiting a while then the adverts come back and the same web helper shows up twice in task manager.
