[DreadWingKnight]

You would need to uninstall the nVidia Network Access Manager from the control panel.

[Kazuki-1]

Ok uninstalled Network access manager and restarted comp

Now what?

[DreadWingKnight]

Now it should not freeze.

If it does, post a process explorer process list with the dll list for the uTorrent.exe process
