marv70 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Thank you for answering so fast! 243 KBI had an earlier version of uTorrent 1.8.4 that I had downloaded in September that did install. Sorry I panicked when it didn't work. This works fine and it updated after I installed. Marv70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marv70 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I downloaded uTorrent 1.8.5 and when I tried to install it on a Windows XP computer I got an Invalid program error and it failed—the same on a Windows 7 computer??? The earlier version is working fine. Thank you for your help. I wonder why it failed to download completely? Marv70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Your exe you downloaded is corrupt, you need to download it again.http://www.utorrent.com/downloadsorhttp://download.utorrent.com/1.8.5/utorrent.exeIf that doesn't work, use another web browser or find a trusted distributor.

marv70 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I tried all the suggestions that you made with the same result—failure? I will use the earlier version. It works fine. Am I the only one? marv70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
