People still use that malware of a client???
uTorrent 2.2.1 Build 25154 is good. There's a few builds of uTorrent that are fine.
But yeah, qbittorrent is the default "why didn't you use it?" client.
It's good in the sense that it's the last version before it got enshittified by ads, but the now nearly-legendary v2.2.1 is also 5 years behind in security patches. It was an awesome, fast, stable client and I miss it, but I don’t think it's worth the risk. Like you and everyone else has been saying, OP should be using Qbittorent.
Which would your suggest? It's been a long time since I've had to do a little pirating.
qBitTorrent is one of the standard clients.
Thanks! I'll give it a go after this is all done downloading.
Tixati, Deluge and Transmission are also good, modern clients
Tixati
KTorrent
A lot of the private trackers I use specifically block its usage.
