How to hide uTorrent ads

Torrents are a great way to transfer large files from one place to another using a simple peer-to-peer (P2P) connection. For this, uTorrent is the quintessential torrent client, standing out for being lightweight, fast, stable, and powerful. It's likely to become your favorite program for downloading torrents.

The "drawback" of uTorrent in its free version is advertising, we are talking about the ads that are displayed on the interface, which can be annoying for the user. Here is a screenshot, where advertising is marked with red:
