#3. Google 'Magnet Links Firefox' and follow instructions for modifying About:Config. Will also work for Tor
#4. Do not ever let an AV corporation decide on what you can downoad. It will ALWAYS lead to undesirable results. They are trying to kill warez.
Use either a commandline scanner, or a Firewall. I have had pretty good results with PC Tools Firewall - but for some reason it *sometimes* blocks P2P sites. (Just turn off if it does)
Thanks I got utorrent to work by downloading the "classic" version. Apparently utorrent is now using "Utorrent web" which did not work for me.

I think that if you paid for Malwarebytes by using something like Paypal you could always go down the route by first contacting Malwarebytes and tell them you don't want it and see what happens drop them an email. Also I would strongly suggest that to get your money back you open a Paypal case and demand a refund. I would do that first and then see if you get a reply and at some point escalate the case.
The trouble is really it's just no good anymore, you won't be the only one I bet it's happened to loads of people. If you paid using a Credit Card then might be worth contacting the Credit Card company about it and tell them it's no good you want your money back and cancel all the services you have signed up for.
I certainly will be seeking a refund from Malwarebytes. One thing I learned is that i want Utorrent classic NOT utorrent web. The classic version now works fine.
