I switched over to qBitorrent and it is much better - no ads, fast, etc.
Mind you

This PROVES at leas that THIS PERSON got the offer, it also shows this is one of those "SLY" installers trying to trick users into accepting.. I believe this is user error and from the many websites I have read (NONE of which can definitively prove that utorrent actually did this, nor any users here have shown any proof of this 'fact' they are telling us) this seems to be the most likely case...
Until someone can actually prove that it has done silent installs on peoples systems this is just a huge he said she said situation with these unhappy users denying all responsibility for accepting the offer (even if IM sure they don't remember every offer screen they were presented, and I know how most people haphazardly mash the mouse to get through those install screens) and utorrent will of course (without any actual proof from the accusers) denying responsibility, which is exactly what you would expect if this were just stupid users that don't know how to click on 'decline'...
Now on a side note, I am sick of uTorrent and I am now going to be changing torrent clients.. NOT because I believe at all that these 'silent install' actually occurred (until proof shows otherwise I believe 100% this was user error), BUT I am changing torrent clients because of the adds (which I still managed to disable anyway) because of the bundles I've always despised (which I have never accepted) and because I see this program has gone way downhill from its roots. The adds and bundles almost made me change a few times before now, but having read all day about the utorrent alternatives I now have no reason to continue using it and have good reason to actually stop using it, having to watch over my shoulder for 'secretive' browser toolbars being installed, making sure to hit the right button otherwise things I don't want on my PC are installed is just sly and until now I put up with it but this is basically the end of the road with utorrent for me..
Goodbye guys thanks for the great program for free all these years, I hope one day you may find the trail that leads back to your roots.
I didn't get EpicScale installed and I remember clicking No to two crapware installs. Still uTorrent seems to be crappy enough for other reasons that I'd recommend qBitorrent instead.
