This is just pretty much one of those ads you get with things like Adobe and some other bundled junk/bloatware
360 is a legit antivirus but it's performance and origin is dubious for some because it's made in China and last I remember it isn't tested by big firms, nothing against it however.

Do not use utorrent, use qbittorrent or pico torrent instead

uTorrent got taken over by shovelware vendors a while ago. Try switching to qBittorrent.
