Dear Readers,

It appears that there is a new version of µTorrent peer 2 peer file sharing program available to download via my favourite safe download source @ download.com. Yes, I know I already posted this a few moments ago. But the main reason is because there are 2 different type of people reading my blog. The people that want the official source via µTorrent home page which is http://www.utorrent.com/ …Then there are the readers that just want the download and don’t care were they get in from provided it is safe and from a trusted website and thous I use download.com for most if not all my downloads and posts, When there are updates I update via both sources. ENJOY :)

**So here is the direct download Via download.com for µTorrent (1.8.3) Enjoy: http://download.cnet.com

Number of Survey received over 5 year since joining: Lost Count

Overall rating: 2 out of 5 – This site still is not at all balanced with almost all surveys no matter how long being worth less then 8 points. That being the main flaw in this site. This site also has cut back huge in number of surveys a week and know why you don’t get points. If you don’t qualify for said survey. Also there are a lot of loading errors and if you hit cancel or your BROWSER CRASHES U DON”T GET CREDITED FOR THAT SURVEY you did.

WARNING: You must complete your profile as well as update it up to twice a year, To keep on getting surveys if you don’t they will just stop with out any warning.
