Since uTorrent is owned by Bittorrent which is associated (or owned, I don't remember) by MPAA, people think that uTorrent now has malicious codes that report to the FBI if you pirate. But, as far as I know, this has not been proven. It is only a rumour.

isn't utorrent open source?

if it is you can look into the code or compile it yourself.

but i've been using utorrent for a long time and never had any problems, probably the best client out there.

uTorrent isn't open source, and yes, the MPAA & BitTorrent have been working together. Slyck News - BitTorrent and MPAA Join Forces

Hmm.. So it looks like we should stick to the older versions of uTorrent. I dislike the idea of MPAA poking their noses into BT clients.
