PizzaParty Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 I did my best to make sure I downloaded uTorrent on the official page, but I still get very suspicisous behavior when trying to install uTorrent.As you can see in the first image that I uploaded, my anti-virus is panicking because of a shady dll named ADKAppsOfferManager. I did quick research and it does seem harmful. Anyhow, I have installed uTorrent before and I have never seen such dll.The second pic his even more unsettling. What the hell is Optmizer Pro ? What is even more weird is the fact that there only an "Upgrade", whether you accept or decline. http://imgur.com/a/mgls9I have tried to make sure that I was downloading the utorrent.exe on the official site, to no avail.Thanks for the help !

Andreasvb Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 The Upgrade-button should refer to µTorrent itself.If you've selected Decline it should be ok.You can also replace utorrent.exe and skip any setup wizards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
