Changing Client ID

This isn't a problem with µTorrent itself, but with a tracker. I wasn't sure where to post this, so apologies if this is the wrong place.

BakaBT, the post-implosion BoxTorrents, apparently has a really really dumb whitelist, with a very slow approval process for new clients and client versions. I'm having no problems with the latest 2.0 beta, and don't want to downgrade to 1.8.x or 1.9.x just for this one tracker.

Short version: Is there a way to change the client ID µTorrent reports, either on a tracker by tracker basis or globally?

Thanks for your time!

You're asking about client spoofing and you can't. Contact the tracker staff to request the whitelisting of uT 2.0 (that's the "rebranded" name of uT 1.9).

OK, I had checked around beforehand and that's what I thought the case was. Thanks for the quick reply, though. :)

From what I understand, they won't whitelist 2.0 because it's still a beta, even though they whitelisted 1.9, being essentially an alpha. *facepalm*
