De ontwikkeling van versie versie 2.2.1 van de BitTorrent-client µTorrent begint zijn einde te naderen, want na een lange reeks van bètareleases zijn nu de eerste release candidates beschikbaar gekomen. De belangrijkste veranderingen in versie 2.2.1 ten opzichte van versie 2.2 zijn onder meer de mogelijk om het programma onder Wine te gebruiken en kan het programma beter overweg met minder gebruikelijke verbindingen, zoals vpn's waarbij van Path MTU Discovery gebruik wordt gemaakt. Verder is de dht-beveiliging verbeterd en zijn de problemen met socks-proxies verholpen. Hieronder is te vinden wat er allemaal is veranderd sinds build 24217:
