stuckmoto Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 I've been using version 1.6.1 for a while(since before the merger to bittorrent). I'm not that concerned about the theory about Cohen and the RIAA/MPAA being involved. Can on of you guys give me a non-condescending reason why I should update to 1.8+.Please list the benefits....Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 There are a large number of security holes in 1.6.x that have since been fixed.Additionally there are other bugs and issues that have been fixed that can't be summed up on one page.

stuckmoto Posted August 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 I thought the security holes were in the newer/later versions...i.e FAKE versions.I guess it's time to update. Will I still be able to use the dozen or so files I'm seeding now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Yup. Upgrading will not drop those files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 And uh, 1.6.1 was released by BitTorrent to fix a security hole in 1.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
