uTorrent 1.8.1 beta build 11903 released

After the rather bug-ridden 1.8 release, let's see what's changed.

 

It's that time again already.

We've worked around the NOD32 issue, but it's still a nasty bug in NOD32 2.5/7 and you should really not use IMON, as the issue could potentially affect any program.

 

The update tracker restriction has been relaxed when the announce fails. If the announce fails, you'll only have to wait 60 seconds to do manual update tracker again, instead of whatever the min interval actually was.
