Changelog / Features:
╚═══════════════════════════╝

· Removed all advertisements and social networking features
· Removed all the call-homes I could find
· Trimmed the executable by almost 2 MB by stripping binary blobs, HTML and digital signature
· Added DHT Patch v2: allows the use of DHT, PEX and LPD for private torrents, but does not enable them by default
· Added /LARGEADDRESSAWARE patch: allows the process to use up to 4 GB of RAM on 64-bit systems, or up to 3 GB on 32-bit systems configured to support it (the disk cache is still limited to 1800 MB); reportedly also improves stability under high-demand scenarios (e.g. seeding thousands of torrents)
· Added rss.update_interval patch: allows values lower than 5
· There are no cheating features, it's just for those who want a lightweight client

╔═══════════════════════════╗
Known issues:
╚═══════════════════════════╝

· "Upgrade to Pro" always appears in the sidebar.
Workaround: go to Options -> Preferences -> Advanced. Close the window, then do the same again but hold Shift+F2 before clicking on Preferences. Find gui.show_plus_upsell_nodes and set it to false. That setting is ignored on startup, so you'll have to do this every time you run the program.

· A very rare (once per six months of 24/7 runtime in average) issue that causes the program to crash silently. Not known if it's due to the mod or just a bug in uTorrent itself.

· Clicking where the globe icon would be in the bottom right corner of the window still opens the Preferences dialog.

· Ticking "Enable protocol enhancements" in the settings is not recommended, as said enhancements may rely on removed features.

· uTorrent will default to TLS 1.0 if no Schannel policies are set, which means many HTTPS trackers won't work. Merging the bundled registry file will solve this.

Technical information:
╚═══════════════════════════╝

· See Attachment 21100 for the instructions and toolkit required to recreate or update this mod.

· settings.dat: comes preconfigured to disable all advertisements, call-homes and non-essential features
· updates.dat: dummy read-only file that prevents uTorrent from storing data about (manual) client updates
· social.bmp: effectively hides the Facebook, Twitter and language icons in the status bar by replacing them with 100% transparent ones
· TLS Fix.reg: sets several Schannel registry entries to specifically allow TLS 1.x secure protocols
· utorrent.lng: official language pack file
· utorrent-355-46074.chm: official help file
· webui.zip: official WebUI resource file

File > Add Torrent From URL

then add the url !

Option not there

Yes it is, from Preferences > General > Associate with torrent files. Now opening magnet url from browser will pick uTorrent to open it !

Yes it is, from Preferences > General > Associate with torrent files.

The options to associate .torrent files and magnet links used to be separate, which explains his confusion. Note that touching associations requires administrator privileges.

Option is greyed out but magnet links still don't work.

Well, if all else fails, you can create a "fake" protocol association. Just replace the red text below with the path to Clean uTorrent's directory (no trailing backslashes) and paste the whole thing inside an administrator terminal.
