superblondee Posted January 21, 2007 Report Posted January 21, 2007 I'm a new torrentor and I was wondering...
µtorrent-Guest Posted January 21, 2007 Report Posted January 21, 2007 unless µT can break the laws of physics it can't run when the PC is switched off!

Falcon4 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 It can work though... if you have a second computer running it while the computer in question is turned off...
Lord Alderaan Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Definitely!It even works if you don't have a computer.Heheh, I hope u don't mind we are having a bit of fun at the expense of you. Nothing personal. Most of us don't realize a great number of people have no concept of the workings of a computer. It definitely isn't something to be ashamed about! You ask you learn. Btw the answer is No to both. When a computer is turned off it can do virtually nothing (I think pretty much the only thing it does is keep a small build in clock running on a small battery. And when µtorrent is closed it unloads itself completely, there is no permanent hidden background stuff (although it does take up to 30 seconds to really close all of its operations even though the window has already disappeared).
