which is the best torrent downloader

[The_Hunter]

which one do you find the fastest and easiest to use
1. Bitlord
2. Azureus
3. Ktorrent
4. Utorrent

[dr jones]

utorrent :)

[tonystark]

utorrent, RSSdownloader pawns

[Roooney]

Utorrent because of low CPU requirements.

[thegoof]

utorrent is simple to configure - check the tutorial forums if you need any help. I think there is even a mac version floating in the ether...

[Laseron]

Utorrent:yup:

[peat moss]

I'v only used Utorrent , I seem to have a few problems with 1.8 tho . Thought my ISP was choking my upload speed but a reinstall seems to have corrected it .

[The_Hunter]

Been using utorrent thought it had problems, as it has the orange triangle at the bottom. Sometimes it slow others its good, sometimes when i am download when you look in tracker it allow some and not others.
[DHT]
[LOCAL PEER DISCOVERY]
[PEER EXCHANGE]
The above 3 are allowed is some downloads other its not is there a reason for this.

[saimer]

DHT stands for Distributed Hash Table. It is a method implemented by some Bittorrent clients to share content without the presence of a tracker.

DHT should always be disabled in your Bittorrent client if you are using a private tracker, as it can create problems for private trackers. It allows connecting to clients which are not registered with the tracker, which will result in invalid statistics. It can allow for leakage of private information. And it can result in an overload of UDP traffic, which can cause problems for Internet connections and routers.

[The_Hunter]

I mainly download from isohunt

[Cartmans]

utorrent rulez :)

[Revol]

I would without doubt say Utorrent. Very easy for to handle for beginners and works well for everyone.

[strjms72]

utorrent here too

[succubus]

its easily utorrent

[AMnesko]

Utorrent, the everyday friend of true downloaders!

[BubbAblack]

utorrent the best

[kj0r]

utorrent ftw

[s_player]

Another vote for uTorrent :)

[pingusso]

utorrent!

[soldier83]

I have been using Utorrent for a long time. Tried Azureus, wasn't even close to utorrent . Utorrent is best download client

[aussienaterror]

utorrent definately but which version

[LtAda]

utorrent definately but which version

The latest utorrent OR 1.8.5 because some trackers don't support the latest one. I like 1.8.5 since its simple.

[Pinky_Demon]

I'm using utorrent 1.8.5

No problem,its great :D

[crusader]

Isn't there anyone who uses vuze,or just even like it:frusty:
I'm a big fat vuze fan myself i don't think i can ever stop using it.

[anon]

Nice bump :yup:


Isn't there anyone who uses vuze,or just even like it:frusty:

There's been a poll about that in the BitTorrent section recently.

[Sonnentier]

utorrent
utorrent

utorrent

[tsiparamai]

Definitely utorrent (like everyone else says in the thread), but if you don't mind CPU usage, Azureus isn't bad either.

[db_la_23]

Utorrent 1.85. its the best

[peat moss]

Old thread but I'm still using uTorrent 1.6.1 and don't plan on upgrading soon.

[LtAda]

Also, avoid BitComet..gave me problems. ;)

[anon]

Also, avoid BitComet..gave me problems. ;)

It's a pretty decent client if you like exploiting others to get faster download speeds.

[BangComedy]

I used to use Azeurus and liked it. However, since my introduction to utorrent, I have been hooked. It is a fabulous torrent program that I would recommend to anyone.

[Stabber]

Utorrent , it's fast and light and does the job

[tito27]

of course its utorrent

[Untouchable]

Utorrent no one better.

[buidanhthuy]

Utorrent ftw :)

[TTS]

Of course Utorrent :)

[7th]

Also, avoid BitComet..gave me problems. ;)

It's a pretty decent client if you like exploiting others to get faster download speeds.

Bitcomet was the first client I've used while still using only public trackers. When I started with private trackers I had to change since it's banned in (probably) all tracers.

It's been some time since I started using uTorrent and never had a problem with it! :)

[iShare_iCare]

uTorrent,of course.

[whitebeard]

Utorrent

[Mischiu]

[vipinfinity]

[vigour]

[romio]

Utorrent , ithink it is simple to use and not forbbiden in any torrent trackers

[Eluvatar]

[Whiteline]

[justask]

for sure utorrent , few years ago Azureus but now utorrent like u guys

[jayreal]

Utorrent

[musicaldj]

Utorrent

[streetrider]

I'm totally satisfied with utorrent. Actually I've only used u torrent in my torrenting career so far and none other from the list above so I'm not in a position to compare. But definitely I've heard utorrent is the most widely used and accepted client.

[jamez14]

I prefer Transmission...just for the pure fact that it is easy to use, lite on the system, and doesn't have all the "flashy" stuff Vuze (Azureus) has which is useless. And Transmission seems to run very well on OS X.

[TopKill]

On os x, Transmission is a hog, but it has brain dead features like actually letting me decide where my files should be downloaded when opening a torrent, instead of just one folder.

I am using utorrent though for my private trackers, which involves opening preferences each time before I add a file, and picking a download location. It runs like a champ though, even with 125 torrents. Transmission becomes sluggish with just 20 for me.

[RasToRizE]

µTorrent without a doubt

[anon]

µTorrent without a doubt

Every time I visit this forum and the new posts list has more than three pages, it is because someone thought it'd be cool to spam a lot. It always happens.

[-neo-]

uTorrent

[lovelovelove]

for me is the utorrent

[jangkyo]

4. Utorrent

utorrent easy... simple...

[whatsalah]

uTorrent is the way to go.

[Vandeley]

Vuze 4.3.1.0

[Stabber]

On windows is utorrent , on unix systems transmission or rtorrent . I actually prefer rtorrent over utorrent . It's lighter and i get better speeds

[KFWQ]

i like utorrent because of its compact size

[musical]

utorrent is the best .. in my opinion...

[EchoAlpha]

uTorrent for Windows and rTorrent for Linux

[uptl]

just utorrent

[scrambler]

utorrent. I started with ABC (remember that?) and then azureus. It took too much power and so i switched to utorrent and haven't looked back.

[anon]

I started with ABC (remember that?)

Those were the times :yup: And the ABC_OKC guys created a very nice, feature-filled fork.

[Anshumanm]

utorrent, it is light & easy to use.

[kartal2000]

utorrent -bittornado

[anon]

bittornado

On your home computer?

Some seedboxes use BitTornado, but for a home torrenter there are much better options. :ermm:

[techzarinfo]

u torrent is the best down loader.

siraj,
tech-Zarweb-developers

[Stabber]

rtorrent is my favourite . It's so light on resources and extremely fast

[GermanGuy]

I use utorrent since a few years. Never had any Probs with utorrent.

[arabisk]

4. Utorrent

[Shinzen]

Started with bitcomet but now happy with utorrent

[pineappleseeds]

uTorrent. Small and simple to optimise.

[dagaul101]

I think if the torrent downloader is light on ram, and doesn't have holes where viruses can come in, it is good

[Loloaca]

I like uTorrent because it doesn't use much RAM Memory and the speeds reach maximum.

[matrixman]

rtorrent is the best, i use it as my seedbox client, quite better then utorrent

[jkl49]

I use utorrent, it seems the best out of the ones I've used.

[bijoy]

I stick with utorrent 1.8.5 for long period..

[karachidude]

utorrent for me aswell

[whitemlk]

uTorrent

[whatcdfan]

up till now u wud have understood but u can also give transmission a try tho it was not listed in the original post

[bozx]

utorrent and torrentflux-b4rt in seedbox...

[Sushi007]

uTorrent is the only client that is not banned from several trackers..............................like Azureus, BitLord etc.

[bijoy]

use deluse in windows and rtorrent in linux.

[asem1985]

utorrent

[MoDyOnLiNe]

4. Utorrent

[esco123]

utorrent, however it is changing the way it appears and also the functions are increasing.

[iSam]

I'm using uTorrent for a long time , sure i tried several clients and some of them aren't put in the first post but uTorrent is the best

[n0thinG]

uTorrent for me. :)

[Nakuzandza]

utorrent in my opinion

[menwkaa]

Azureus to me

[GreenTea]

uTorrent all the way.
I used to use BitComet.

[pint76o]

Ever heard of ipfilter.dat?

[dannyyelly]

is it really necessary to filter ips??
i just thought so many illegal things go on in india, nobody's gonna care about this..:blink:

[anon]

is it really necessary to filter ips??

It's very recommended on countries where they do care. Plus regardless of where you live, if certain IP ranges are known to spread fakes or harvest addresses, then what's the point of connecting to them? That's why I use uIpFilterX. It's updated regularly and doesn't have loads and loads of ranges, only the most important ones.

[dannyyelly]

ok just did it!!

[fnjack]

sorry. I think you're right. but I donn't know who am I

[cibu]

utorrent

[Shadowsky]

news utorrent ofc :)

[pastoral]

I recommend uTorrent. When you run it, you do not feel much that your PC is slowing down.

[motorsport1989]

Utorrent

Alright guys, you and your powerful arguments have convinced me. uTorrent is superior.

[natural]

I like Utorrent because it's simple and easy to use.

[hectorbenson]

uTorrent

[zot]

@ anon-sbi - I suspect that many people treat this 'preference' question as if it were "blond, brunette, or redhead?" -- no explanation needed :lol:

How about complaints against utorrent:

* Can cause eye strain when using multiple trackers.

* Can't kick/ban "leeches" (traditional P2P definition)

* not totally portable (reads/writes config info in /documents and settings/)

[anon]

* not totally portable (reads/writes config info in /documents and settings/)

1. eye strain? :blink:
2. that one's true. Complaints have been posted on the uTorrent forums about how to program doesn't ban clients known to be abusive (mostly Chinese ones), but the developers have refused to discriminate peers by that criteria.
3. if you create a dummy file called settings.dat in the same directory as the executable, uTorrent will store its preferences, the resume file and .torrent files there, therefore making it fully portable. I've done this to be able to leech when I wasn't at home, so I know it can be done. :)

[Stabber]

There is no best , there is only best for you . U try them and you choose the best on that suit for you .

I prefer utorrent on xp , rtorrent on linux because of the small footprint on system resources

[Piccolo]

My opinion is 4 Utorent

[mfalaura]

utorrent is great. Maybe i'll pass on usenet in a few days!

[KHRALL]

utorrent ofc

[simonxu11]

Thunder and utorrent

[Cooper41]

I usually use uTorrent on my personal computer and rTorrent on my seedbox

[lando]

hands down rtorrent daemon is the best i've ever used. i ssh into my box from work and manage my torrents via its cli interface.

[penduboy]

I like BitTorrent. Very simple and quite reliable. I am using this for last couple of years now and love it.

[Frankthetank1]

dont know why anyone would use anything other then uTorrent

[bijoy]

dont know why anyone would use anything other then uTorrent

One of the causes:nthere is no .nix version of it and not everyone uses windows.

[Artemis]

One of the causes:nthere is no .nix version of it and not everyone uses windows.

Since utorrent is a single executable file requiring no other dependencies, it is extremely simple to run in an virtual environment on any other platform i.e. using Wine or CXO under Linux and Parallels under MacOS if you wish, once again the amount of system resources used (even within a virtualbox ) is nominal.

[anon]

One of the causes:nthere is no .nix version of it

There is a Linux version. Apparently, it's command-line only, but you can control it using the WebUI.

[InTheBasement]

uTorrent in wine works well. I didn't like compiling my old KDE client and as I joined more trackers I found uTorrent was white listed the most.

[DANNYAU]

uTorrent for 99% ,1% still for BitTornado

[ranger]

utorrent

[gargoyle]

utorrent and transmission

Waiting for utorrent's new paid version to be uploaded at TPB :D

[Guttsu]

I've been using Vuze (azuras) for the longest time, but I think its time for me to find a tut for utorrent and finally switch over. I've never been all that happy with vuze.

[anon]

Waiting for utorrent's new paid version to be uploaded at TPB :D

And you'll download it with the free uT? uTorrentception.


I think its time for me to find a tut for utorrent and finally switch over.

You hardly need a tutorial to use uTorrent. The speed guide automatically configures your connection settings based on the results of a speed test. Most of the other ones are self-explanatory, and the rest is very well-documented by the manual.

uTorrent used to be good but now they're taking a turn for the worst so Transmission is now the best torrent client in my opinion.

[Frankthetank1]

i use to use it but slowed my pc down way too much and the java would screw it up.

Why do you have to upgrade for? The old, nonpaid versions work fine. And just as efficient.

It still is good. Old versions won't die out anytime soon.

Why?

[Stabber]

well the fastest is bitcomet but is banned on most private trackers .

I always max my speed with bitcomet .

[mR.d@hLa!]

UTorrent all the way =)

[anon]

Why do you have to upgrade for? The old, nonpaid versions work fine. And just as efficient.

...

Why?

Because they can, obviously. I personally wouldn't use the "plus" version even if it was freely available. No sense in having extra features I won't use.

[a7x]

I using my phone for Voicecall and SMS. But i still bought Smartphone.

[Human_Being]

why do i get the feeling i should be using utorrent :wacko:

[BigBerego]

Utorrent

[thegunners]

utorrent , never had any problems ..

[fearthenet]

uTorrent but since 3.0 I am starting to seriously doubt ever using it in the future since is more bloaty then ever before.

[Yeahh]

utorrent and rtorrent

[DarkAngel1337]

On seedbox I like Deluge, at home I use uTorrent, in the poast I used Bitcomet wich I still consider better than uTorrent, butt is banned on some trackers I use.

[Swanny14]

Transmission on my mac all the way

[Mariusqk]

utorrent for windows, rtorrent for linux
