How to Access uTorrent WebUI

The uTorrent client is used for peer-to-peer file sharing on personal computers.You can configure uTorrent through its user interface just as you can with most software applications. However, uTorrent can also be configured and managed through a browser-based user interface. For example, you can add or remove torrents from the queue and hide or show the uTorrent toolbar, torrents detail pane and category list. You must configure uTorrent through the regular user interface before you can access the uTorrent WebUI.
