I don't use torrents at all any more, but when I was on Windoze I was frustrated with BitTorrent, and used Azureus for a time (cool program but maybe it's overkill with too many features). Then I settled on the lean and mean ABC (Another BitTorrent Client):

http://pingpong-abc.sourceforge.net/

This is a good bittorrent client program: very small and easy to configure. I think it's the best.

OK you uTorroent lovers, i tried it. but something is wrong. files don't really have any download speed or are not downloading at all.ž

i checked the speed settings and ther eis this port you are supposed to configure for faster downloads. well wehn i tested the speed it gave me an error. what might i be doing wrong? i know there is a lot of seeders for the file i wan't to download and as it happened a few days after about 2 weeks of inactivity one 1.2GB and another 700MB file downloaded in 6h. the rest also downloaded a larger portions. but now everyhting is stopped again. what could be the problem.

i have zone alarm installed, but i oppened up the ports for uTorrent and i also has full acces to internet. secondly the router firewall also has everyhitng opened for uTorrent. so why can't anything get through (Or so it seems). this has to be one of longest downloads ever. previously on Bitttorrent it took about a week for 4.3GB file. now it's been 3 weeks and almnost no progress.

I also openeed the section which shows the graph and speed is usually at 0 sometimes 1 kb for a few secs. also i remember when i put it on the computer for files there were a lot of peers on the list. now it is usually just one eventhough i know the torrent file has more seeders and more leecher than 1.


EDIT: Never mind. i fixed it... wow this thing is fast....
