I used 1.8, then reverted because 1.8 would not remember column settings. It even messed up 1.7.7’s column settings.
Download speeds seemed about the same for both versions.

Installed 1.8 today. Reverted to 1.7.7 because 1.8 won’t connect to anything; has a lame icon; is not user friendly. Earlier versions had easy access to Global Bandwidth in Options-Connection. No longer there in 1.8.

The new “Stable release” is 1.8.0. It has hundreds of bug fixes compared to 1.6.1.
If you are hesitant, wait for 1.8.1 or 1.8.0.1 (whichever they name it).
uTorrent 1.8 went through months of beta testing and then 7 Release Candidates. It is very stable on Windows XP and later.

Isn’t that the same one that was reported already month ago?
there were 1.7.7 builts after that number that had fixed the bug, were there not?
