Crashing version 1.2.2

Searched the forums, couldn't find anything I haven't already tried.

Version 1.2.2 crashes when I leave it on for periods of time. It has never actually crashed while I was at the computer. The programs I have running are Daemon Manager, Microsoft Antispyware, Trillian3, and the NVidia settings icon. I turned Nvidia firewall off and exited the program, but this hasn't helped. When utorrent crashes, the contents of the utorrent window become a blank white window but you can still move the window, or if it is in tray mode you can't right-click on the icon. Also it seems to be using more memory than I would expect - 13,000K and continuously rising - likely the problem. Why is it leaking memory?

thanks.

edit:

So I did some deeper digging (specifically after I remembered the term "memory leak" and found that I should completely uninstall the Nvidia firewall, instead of just quitting out of the program. I went to add/remove programs, should I get rid of "NVIDIA Forceware Network Access Manager" completely to get rid of the firewall?

I uninstalled the ForceWare Network Access Manager but it did nothing - when I look at utorrent.exe in Taskmanager the RAM usage still goes up - perhaps a bit slower since before I uninstalled this stuff and disabled DHT. The usage starts at about 8MB when the program is started and then it goes up slowly.

The problem is with the firewall, it's not a bug with µTorrent.

Uninstall it, there's no other solution.

Also, make sure you reboot after uninstalling it, and a slight memory increase is normal. (close the GUI every once in a while to counter it)
