True Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Read about it a few days ago on Slyck (don't read there often, just decided to see what else was going on in our persecuted, 100% legal hobby).Glad I went there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfire Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I first found out through my digg.com RSS feed, so the first version I downloaded was "way back" in v1.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kludge Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I found uTorrent when quite a few clients were sharing very fairly with me, raised my interests when more peers became apparent, so i investigated... Never looked back since Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segosa Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Someone linked to it on IRC, so I checked it out, and loved it the moment I tried it. That was back when it was only 2 weeks old and the forum had literally < 10 threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kludge Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 now thats commitment!.. something i'm definitely doing.. A longterm AZ fan, but with only a few features i'd like, im definitely going to change over to uTorrent!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tozz Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Got "client banned" on a tracker when using BitComet, so I went and looked for a new client, it's amazing how much crap and bloat there's out there Found uTorrent by luck and been using it since.

Kludge Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 good to have you on the uTorrent train.. there are quite a few reasons why BitComet is banned.. And only one usual reason that uTorrent is banned.. And thats because it is new, and not a lot of admin/mods HAD heard of it.. im sure lately that has changed though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
