Before I get very far, I need to make sure I'm not doing something stupid.

How do I make sure that BakaBT knows that this instance of uTorrent is me? In other words, how do I log in?

I thought that if the browser was logged in when I downloaded the torrent file and started it, that would do it. But I'm not sure that's right. Is there something I have to do in uTorrent itself in order to be logged in to BakaBT?

UPDATE: This changeover has turned out to be a lot less painful than I thought it was going to be. I figured it was going to take days to achieve what I've already done.

Merope is an amazing value for just $450.

UPDATE: OK, I have about two thirds of my previous torrents running, and I'm going to let the others go.

uTorrent 3.1.3 is acting the way the earlier version of uTorrent 3 did when I tried it before. It's doing something odd in how it decides when and to whom to do uploading. uTorrent 2.2.1 routinely saturated my uplink. I had an uplink cap of 200 KB/s and that's what it used.

But uTorrent 3.1.3 doesn't do that. It's also got a cap of 200 KB/s but it's been averaging less than half that, and I can't figure out why. I've tried messing with the various setup options but I can't find anything that makes any difference.

UPDATE: Maybe one of the things I did made a difference, because now it's saturating the uplink bandwidth.
