Stopped using Utorrent because of all the ads on the last upgrade I ran, now using Deluge.....perfect for the job and reminds me very much of the original Utorrent...
Mmmmmmm I was tempted to use Deluge.
Anyway way to transfer current torrent from utorrent? As they are partly downloaded
Is there a program that can open software every 1 hour ? I might need to use a life hack if this does not work.
Btw tanks Johnatan56, uTorrent has no more ads, like none!!
I uninstalled bit defender will keep everyone posted if it survives the night

Not too sure, I waited till Utorrent finished downloading , with ads flashing, then uninstalled it.
The latest version that I downloaded on Sunday, came with two ads, a banner ad on the top and then a block ad on the left hand side.... Very frustrating.....
Disable them. Its really straightforward.

I read up on this, on the earlier versions you could disable, on the latest version you had to edit a file and set false commands....but the guys on the utorrent forum , were still getting issues, that after a few days the ads would re-appear, seemed like to much hassles for a simple fellow like me.
End result, happy with simple minimalist deluge.
So far so good my ads are disabled latest version. I will report back of they mysteriously reappear.
Thanks to Johan56 I uninstalled bitdefender.
My torrents survived the night !!
New problem thou... Not sure if telkom or my pc/router.
The speeds on both my AH and WA account was ridiculous slow like 3 - 20Kb/s
The night before and before that etc it runs 4.7Mb/s combined.
Last night it was around 99 - 110Kb/s.

I am pretty sure my instructions work with all versions, used it about a month ago, but I don't always update utorrent.
@thor, try running ping plotter in the background for the night? It should keep a log of where the packets spike/loss.
You Sir are a unsung Hero!!!

Is there a reason nobody uses normal Bittorrent? That's what I used to use, no ads, has a scheduler. Worked well.
Literally they are the same. Owned by the same company and the code is basically copy and paste.
I like utorrent primarily because it's clean looking (once you get rid of the ads, which is very easy to do), simple, and lightweight. You can modify it to your liking and it comes with uTorrent Remote (so I can manage my torrents while I'm away from home).
