I would recommend Shareaza for Torrents, because BitTorrent is far too slow. It's a free P2P (not very good), but it has no adware/spyware and it supports torrent files.

http://home.elp.rr.com/tur/download.htmlshadows is by far the best for noob's, because its color coded, let you know if your not configured correctly, ie. firewalled or behind a router.


and bittorrent is not slow, should be at or faster speeds than kazza.
I think it might be slow because of the client your using(don't really know Anyone who uses it), or more likely because of a router or firewall, I suggest you both try shadows and you will know pretty quick if your not properly configured.

going to give shadows a try cos shareaza cant find sources for the tar im trying to get, but it looks like a good programme - may be the tar thats at fault. Sepernova is great but I remember coming across an excellent links page once that included supernova and gave good ratings of them all, does anyone have any idea of the address?

Thanks for all the help
