Downloaded uTorrent... Double clicked the executable but did not finish the install because I had second thoughts about it once my antivirus noticed something odd. Did a full scan of my PC since then and says I am in the clear, could it just be a very well hidden program? Or am I just being worried for no reason? I do not notice any slowdown or anything... Thanks in advance.

My ESET Smart Security antivirus often detects viruses when installing uTorrent - i believe they are always a false alarm, but i still stick to the 2.2.1 version, as it is bloatware/adware/spyware free - it's the original utorrent. You can find it by googling uTorrent 2.2.1.

 

P.S.: Stop using that color please, as the dark theme users on LTT forums can't see anything :/
