I would suggest to uninstall utorrent and get something else.
Utorrent is an easy way to get malware, but not because torrents give you malware necessarily, but Utorrent itself attempts to install adware during install via a toolbar, and naturally will try to do it when a new version is released as it installs again. You can uncheck these things of which gives people the illusion of choice, but I wouldn't trust any software that tries to give these things to people by default. The malware I've found are extremely hard to remove; no legit software would have these things tag along! And even if you don't get tricked, it's still bloated and terrible.
I have to say though; these torrent programs often start out clean but I guess a lot sell their soul along the way, so what is safe today may not be tomorrow. A good example would be Vuze, formerly known as Azures.
I would suggest some ways not made by scumbags, such as Opera (comes with torrent ability), Firefox has an extension:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...rrent-tornado/ Yes, while Firefox may be a terrible browser that's little more than a Chrome wannabe these days, it's pretty good at doing stuff not related to browsing thanks to the extensions
Personally, I use Qbittorrent; it's simple and does the job:

So apparently one of the programs, "Trovi Search Protect", is a successor of Conduit. Conduit's a fine piece of malware. Back then, i'd waste so much time trying to help people dealing with it, that I figured it'd be more time efficient to just reformat.
