General critique, and a few suggestions

Hi.

I've been a uTorrent user for the last 8 years or so, and each time you guys have upgraded the programme, it has been useful.

However, this time when the programme was updated to the recent version (v3.1.3. Build 27220), I found the experience to be less-than-good.

I am going to give some points which I think might be helpful in making things better. Hope the comments are received with the same good spirit that they are being given in: the aim being to make uTorrent better & more useful.

Thanks for your time.

1. In the current version, on right-clicking a torrent, and selecting "Remove and", and then choosing any of the options (example: 'delete torrent + data'), the programme does NOT ask for a confirmation. This is vexatious, as on most laptops with trackpads or trackballs a mere slip of the finger &/or uneven pressure can result in a disaster!

The earlier version with a confirmation dialogue ("Do you really want to etc.....") was definitely better.

2. The colour differentiation scheme between the Finished files and the Seeding files is not very useful - both being shades of green, and are difficult to make out as easily. The earlier version of giving the seeding files a different colour was better.

3. In the detailed info bar, it is more useful (& intuitive) to have the Info tab before the Files tab - preferably as the 1st tab.

4. Although the UI is snazzier, it is my opinion that it is now on the bubble-gummy, teenage-y side. I think it should be a bit more solid & serious looking.

5. It still is a puzzle to me why the keyboard shortcut key (after the right click) for Bandwidth Allocation has been changed from "B" to "W", esp. as "B" doesn't seem to be assigned to anything in that context/menu. :)
