µGadget – µTorrent features within your browser…

[Firon]

We have worked hard to make the browser toolbars we promote more useful for µTorrent users, and we're now ready to offer a beta version of the "µGadget" – a customized browser toolbar which gives you some µTorrent functionality right in your browser:

- You can now watch your download progress while you continue to surf the web;

- You can control downloads direct from the browser;

- You can set an option that will allow for one-click-torrenting – the torrent file is downloaded and added to your client in the background;

- You can even configure your µGadget to connect to a remote µTorrent client (so long as you have the IP/port and web UI enabled).

Two important notes:

(1) the toolbar is (and will always be) optional;

(2) the only connection your µGadget has is directly with your µTorrent client – it will not expose private data to our servers or those of our search partners.

We know this won't be for everyone, but we do quite like the functionality and believe the development team has done a great job in creating a much slicker product than the existing basic toolbar.

We hope you'll give it a try it and give us some feedback on any issues.
