I don't know much about BT seeing as I'm only a lowly 56K'er atm (whos getting ADSL soon), but has anyone tried this client?

burst! (http://krypt.dyndns.org:81/torrent/download.phtml)
Screenshots (http://krypt.dyndns.org:81/torrent/screenshots.html)

Based on Shadow's experimental, burst! looks to be a very basic BT client perfect for the newbies.
There isn't much to config so guiding someone through setup would be fairly simple.
Hell, if I could figure it out... :rolleyes:

I tried burst! just for laughs and it seemed to be pretty good.
But as a 56K'er I can't say if it works better/faster than any other client.

So I'm here asking you guys to try it if you haven't already, and give your opinions... :ph34r:

TIA

Okay. So far, so good...

CPU1 - I don't know if this feature was included when you were using the client,
but you can set it so the DOS windows aren't displayed. It's in the FAQ (http://krypt.dyndns.org:81/torrent/faq.html).

Programming languages used to develop burst! are Delphi/Kylix and Python. More info here (http://sourceforge.net/projects/burst/).

Anyone else tried it?
