A recent upgrade in uTorrent has been released. Even though v1.8 has been around for a bit, a new build came out on August 13th.

— 2008-08-13: Version 1.8 (build 11813)
- Fix: do not check routing for IPs when a proxy is in use
- Fix: replace backslashes in file paths for multifile URL seeding with forward slashes
- Fix: incorrect bencode key sorting on keys where one is a subset of the other
Now, I’m just curious. How do YOU say uTorrent?
- YOU-Torrent
- Micro-Torrent
- Mu-Torrent
I used to say MicroTorrent until a bunch of EVERYONE started using YOU-Torrent — Including the author[1] of uTorrent.
Besides, uTorrent is much easier to type than Start>Run>Charmap>Search/EyeStrain>Copy>Paste-Torrent. You know what I’m talkin’ about.

It’s not uTorrent but [b]µ[/b]Torrent. ‘μ’ (pronounced “me”, as in, tell me …) is the greek small letter ‘m’.
Because you could not use other letters than lattin in urls, the closest latin look-alike is u.
So should be pronounced like me-torrent.

Ah! Now that is an award winning explanation. Thanks for the information.
You could start a whole new brand with that… me-Mail, me-Pod…
