Sorry for nitpicking but it doesn't matter if a host is reliable or not, since they could get hacked (unknowingly) or your download binary could get swapped out on the fly via deep packet inspection.
For what my opinion is worth, I vouch for that site. I see on my Firefox bookmarks Library that I have "Added" that in "Mon 26/12/2005, 14:36". This is one of my favourite sites when I am looking for a piece of software that "simply works". And I usually don't care how old is it, as long as it runs on my Win8.1Pro, I'm OK. Typically the older - the better.
Been using it to download uTorrent 1.7.2 for what seems like at least a decade.
Try qBittorrent. I have been very happy with it as a uTorrent replacement for the past few years.
Wonder how many remote root exploits your system is open to.
