As a uTorrent user, thanks for this useful bit of info.
I have an older version, so it's fine for now, but I'll remember this whenever I need to install a torrent program again.

That's why I haven't upgraded uTorrent.

How would you know if you have Epic Scale on your pc?
And how would you remove it if you did?

They fixed the issue. If you think that you were at risk, go to Add Remove programs and remove a program called EpicScale.

Well, seems like it's a good thing that never updated from uTorrent 2.2, been using it for eons it seems and it's also my primary means of sourcing anime, well at least from where I get it. :p
The other good thing is that qBittorrent is also on the 'white list' for that site as well.
