Client 3.3.1.30017 Network status indicator giving false alarms.

Just finished several hours of testing with three 'portable' installs of uTorrent 3.3.1.30017.

The network status indicator changing colour to amber or red is a false alarm, if the port is already opened, manually or automatically and uPnP or NAT-PMP is enabled the client is repeatably trying to open the same port and is getting a response that the port is in use, and is then flagging that there is a network error.

Turning off BOTH uPnP and NAT-PMP stops this happening.

This behaviour [curiously] ALSO floods the machine DNS cache AND 'crashes the Internet' as many users put it, running ipconfig /flushdns clears this and allows browsers to 'work' again.
