uTorrent Falcon lets you remote control your torrent downloads from anywhere

µTorrent's WebUI has been providing browser-based management of your torrent transfers for quite some time, but setting it up can be a bit complicated for casual users. Port forwarding, dynamic DNS... it's a pain to sort out if you're not-so-skilled with routers and remote access.

The new µTorrent Web beta changes all that, adding totally hassle-free access to your queue from anywhere you've got a Web browser. Just download the Falcon beta, head to Options>Preferences>Web and enter a username and password you'd like to use, and press apply. Once connected, you can pull up your Web interface simply by logging in at http://falcon.utorrent.com.

Connections are SSL encrypted to keep your sessions secure. It's extremely handy for doing things like starting a 4GB Linux ISO download on your home computer while you're still at work.

To take Falcon for a test flight, download it now!
