It's "Bit" Torrent, dude. :mrgreen:

I use Azureus myself, it's got an easy to get along with interface and it's in Java. I hear good things about BitLord, though, like a searchable torrent database. Anybody using that and can tell me how good it is?

I'm a proponent of BitTornado. Never had a problem with it, never been dissapointed.....Just my 2 cents

I use µTorrent. It has a very small footprint and doesn't use up much system memory.

You know, my only complaint about Azureus is that it's a bit of a hog when it comes to system resources. I'm gonna try this out.

I agree, its been excellent since I started using it last year, no problems yet either.

I switched to Azureus, but I also like tornado. Azureus tends to freeze my pc if various users are logging on and off...that never happened with tornado. Azureus is nice because of the one stop shopping, change priority, observe swarm, open files directly from the interface, etc...

LK, your Meg White fixation is getting very ... distracting.

Uh ... where was I? Oh, yeah. I use Azureus. It's a resource hog but I find it easy to use, like the interface.

ya, µTorrent uses a fraction of the memory that azureus does.... and azureus only does so because it's coded in java. java coding = java vm = take a nap
