How to install uTorrent v3.3 on 14.04

Question

I've attempted to install utorrent on 14.04 using the Terminal and attempting to install libssl 0.9.8, but with no success. Also, this utorrent version is V3.3 and is located in my Downloads. I've already attempted the post which mine was a dupe of (How to install uTorrent step by step? )

Install uTorrent Server 3.3

Step 1: Download latest uTorrent Server from here

Note: (You need to download uTorrent Server for 13.04, also works for Ubuntu 14.04)

Step 2: Extract uTorrent Files

Launch terminal (with Ctrl+Alt+T or search Terminal in dash and click to open it)

Change directory to Downloads folder
```
cd ~/Downloads/
```
Extract uTorrent files to the /opt directory
```
sudo tar -xvzf utserver.tar.gz -C /opt/
```

Step 3: Set Permission

Set permission on uTorrent-server folder

sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/utorrent-server-alpha-v3_3/

Step 4: Set Symbolic link

Run the command to link uTorrent server to the /user/bin directory.

sudo ln -s /opt/utorrent-server-alpha-v3_3/utserver /usr/bin/utserver

Step 5: Start uTorrent

Run the following command in the Terminal

utserver -settingspath /opt/utorrent-server-alpha-v3_3/

Note: If you get an error about libssl.so package missing, then

Run the command below to install it:
```
sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8:i386
```
then try starting it again.

Step 6: Log into uTorrent

Open Firefox/Chrome and browse to the URL
```
localhost:8080/gui
```
The username is admin and leave the password field empty

Note2 : If libssl0.9.8:i386 isn't working, try libssl0.9.8, if that also doesn't work, you probably need libssl1.0.0 (Ubuntu 16.04) .
