Just got introduced to this BitTorrent client by a good friend and it looks to be the best of all of the BT clients out there. It is an individual program which has the function to manage all of the BT downloads in itself, a built in tracker to allow users to share torrents directly, rather than uploading them to an "external" tracker (the Embedded Tracker), plug-in support, and even IRC chatroom and etc.. It's really nice. Check it out...

Azureus - Java BitTorrent Client

Azureus is the best BitTorrent client bar none.

(A)nother (B)ittorrent (C)lient. I used that before I started using Azureus. Another nice feature that wasn't mentioned is the ability to select what you want to download of the files made available. So if someone is sharing a folder of stuff and you already have some or most of what is being shared, you can select those not to be downloaded. A notification of hosting your own torrents as well, if you don't have a static IP it can be kind of difficult to use the internal tracker. Otherwise, Azureus is excellent. I just wish there I could figure out how to turn off the warning for when I want to stop sharing something that hasn't reached a 1.0 ratio but has no other seeds or downloads.

You mean "Yet Another BitTorrent Client"?

 

[jlo mein]

I use ABC....it works to satisfactory standards so i feel no need to switch to anything else...ABC doesnt seem to lag my pc either which other clients did...

Bit comet is way better than anything else. I tried using every single client out there, and i thought that bitcomet rules them all.

I just use BitTornado. I'd like to use Azureus, but it eats up so much CPU, which could be used elsewhere. (Only matters to us with not-so-up-to-date computers.)

 

[luukas]

Java... yuck.

Bitcomet is nice, but simply put pathetic if you want to seed a torrent. Personally I use G3 Torrent.

What is the best way to configure azureous? I can never get what i would consider a fast download. Actually, downloading is rediculously slow considering I am using a partial T1. I tried to configure my router (DLink DI-604) for the 6881-6889 thing or whatever, but could not get to it's setup.

Thanks for any response

I set the download speed to unlimited and the upload to the least (5 KBPS). LOL.
