    what are you talking about? If you see my screenshot, the giant red box I circled, doesnt go to sourceforge or anything like that, it downloads the bittorrent client from that site, the one I've been talking about the whole time....

    the link below all those buttons says "click for source an older version" goes to sourceforge and has the source...or older versions of the same client I've been talking about the whole time.

    my only point being, I suppose that client is JUST called "bittorrent" and that is the particular one I use.
    ok lets not get into a big screaming fit here. it does download from that site ok then w/e you're right.. just end it

    I'd rather not break S-M's rules.

    I use TorrentStorm, which is essentially a multi-torrent frontend for BitTornado. It has selectable torrent downloaders (though why you'd use other than BitTornado is anyone's guess) and lets you configure all the options fairly easily. It can also minimize to the systray and supports upload/download speed limits.

    I have to join the client debate by saying I've used BitTorrent (the original BT client, as Camman does). Then I moved to BitTornado and I've been with BitComet for some time now and it's awesome. I can download mulitple torrents in one window, set priorities and a whole set of other options.

    I was useing Shadow's Experimental client for a long time, then I switched to Azureus and I like it 100% better. So many options, so easy to use, and the amount of information it gives you about your torrent is incredible...

    Pilotwings do you only ever post about illegal stuff? Talking about Bittorrent is fine but you shouldn't be posting bittorrent sites here. Please.

    WHAT?!! bittorent sites are NOT illegal. If you download illegal stuff, thats your own wrongdoing. These sites are very legal and usefull for downloading LEGAL stuff like demos, updates, freeware, opensource programs etc.

    It's like in Texas- you cannot pick a Bluebonnet, but you can pick all the daisies you want. You go into a field filled with flowers, and theres lots of Bluebonnets and Daisies everywhere. Picking the Bluebonnets is wrong, but yes you can do it.

    the program at http://www.bittorrent.com/ is the original bit torrent client by bram, the guy who invented & wrote the bt protocol.
