So, I'm having the exact same issue, only it's telling me that bt_datachannel.dll was not found. I have scanned the file (utorrent_installer.exe) with Norton 360, restarted my PC (several times), tried re-downloading the file from the official uTorrent site (where I got the original file from), all with no luck.

Has anyone else had this problem, and does anybody have an answer???

  I have spoken with Norton and McAfee both because of this. Blocking torrent down loaders and similar programs is a known issue for both services. They consider blocking peer to peer file programs to be a "feature" and have no plans to correct the issue.
