µTorrent 3.2.1

µTorrent is een programma waarmee je bestanden kunt delen en downloaden. Let op dat lang niet al het materiaal op torrent-sites legaal is. Het delen van auteursrechtelijk beschermde films, muziek en software is niet toegestaan.

µTorrent 3.2.1 is deze maand verschenen. Veel nieuwe functionaliteit zit niet in deze uitgave van de populaire torrent-client, maar wel worden tientallen fouten gerepareerd. Ook is µTorrent 3.2.1 geschikt voor Windows 8 en is het makkelijker om torrents toe te voegen. Alle details over de wijzigingen kun je hieronder nalezen.

µTorrent is te downloaden voor Windows, Mac OS X (oudere versie) en Linux.

Let heel goed op tijdens de installatie! Haal vinkjes weg voor de onnodige browserwerkbalk en verandering van zoekmachine en accepteer andere onnodige software niet! Er kunnen wel tot drie keer toe ongewenste extraatjes worden aangeboden!

Filter for sponsored_torrent_offer_enabled. (Note: this entry was not in the original post on 9/21, was added on 9/23.)
