Last utorrent version to run on win98SE ?
Last utorrent version to run on win98SE ?
Old laptop. The newest one does not run at all. I remember using it years ago on win98, so there must be a compatible version. TIA |

: Last utorrent version to run on win98SE ? Old laptop. The newest one does not run at all. I remember using it years ago on win98, so there must be a compatible version. http://www.oldversion.com/uTorrent.html I use 1.8.1. You can try some of the newer versions but there's no point, really. (Yes, I know, there ARE a few semi-useful additions but most will not work on pre-XP systems). -- Of course, it is no easy matter to be polite; in so far, I mean, as it requires us to show great respect for everybody, whereas most people deserve none at all; and again in so far as it demands that we should feign the most lively interest in people, when we must be very glad that we have nothing to do with them. - Arthur Schopenhauer |

Oops! Latest there is 1.7.7
I have noticed recently that site is not being exactly, shall we say, kept up to date... Not to mention it was never THAT complete. If you want 1.8.1 I can post it somewhere. -- Of course, it is no easy matter to be polite; in so far, I mean, as it requires us to show great respect for everybody, whereas most people deserve none at all; and again in so far as it demands that we should feign the most lively interest in people, when we must be very glad that we have nothing to do with them. - Arthur Schopenhauer |

I did try oldversion, and the 1.77 version works, but crashes, under some conditions, corrupting the download. This was fixed in version 1.80, according to the changelog. I have found version 1.82, 1.83 and 1.84 on some old backups I have. Will try them on the laptop as soon as the OP lets me. TNX for the feedback. PS just found this site: http://downloadutorrent.net/category...-old-versions/ I downloaded version 1.85, and http://virusscan.jotti.org/en found no viruses, but I'll quarantine it for a month or so before trusting it |

And uTorrent has NEVER had any malware. I have two installed on my computer. One is Avira, running in memory, other is clamwin, for right-click scanning. But: www.virustotal.com (offline ATM) has 41 antiviruses, http://virusscan.jotti.org has 14 (+-). They keep them absolutely up to date. I believe in numbers (I just DL'd and scanned it with the May 14 2010 version of ESET NOD 32. It's clean.) I had some real bad problems with a USB virus last year. I submitted samples to AVG (detected it after 2 days) and Avast (took a month to detect it). So I quarantine anything for at least a week IF downloaded from untrusted site, then run it under virustotal.com before installing. Took me 8 hours to manually remove that $^&$^$ USB virus from my computer. |
