    I tried uTorrent and it's not bad. The damn torrents stopped though ...

    I'm trying Wyzo/Azerus (they are the same right) and have a question. What does "downloading from 12(103) source" mean? Is the 12 the number of seeders?

    FYI - I'm getting dome great d/l rates from Wyzos on the exact same torrents ...

    µTorrent, the best software that ive come acrossed, very light, doesnt take much memory, only 1 exe file, so you can start it from usb drive if you want to :)

    im too layz to find my old post about the dangers of torrent clients...
    anyway, they all report your usage by defaut now, and vuze lets you turn it off and peerguardian blocks the reports now too.
    It really doesnt matter what you use as long as is doesn't contain spyware like some of the rogue clients out there..

    here is my top 5 list:
    vuze
    transmission
    rtorrent
    utorrent
    bittornado

    everything else is based on (or very similar to) one of these in some way, or is closed source spyware infested crap...

    uhm i dont use anything for torrents. (what are torrents exactly? :blink:, because i always click 'download' and there it goes )
    Or I just tell my brother what i want to have, and i get it a few hours later. And i thought he uses newsleecher for that. Atleast something with 'news' in it i thought :p..
    Meh never mind what the name is, it works great and fast :drunk:
