The latest release of μTorrent features in-client ads (here). The once concise and no-nonsense BitTorrent client is now taking a path to bloatware.

To turn off the ads, go to Preferences, and then Advanced, and set the following variables to false:

• offers.left_rail_offer_enabled
• offers.sponsored_torrent_offer_enabled

Click OK and restart the program. The ads should be gone now.

I actually switched to another client called Tixati. Currently it works well for me, and it has no nonsense.
