I have read a lot of threads about different clients that support .torrent files, but haven't made up my mind on which one to use.

Which one is the best according to you?

remember to change from kbs to KBs, its a false sense of speed, nifty trick for the n00b's
don't believe the Shareaza hype, it sucks for bittorrent

I'm using torrent storm which uses shadow as the client. Seems pretty good so far.

Nice and handy, holds all your torrents in one list and you can personalize the info it shows you.

hey Hey HEY!!!

how come nobody mentioned nova torrent?

it may not be as well known as shadow but it has some of the nicest features out there.

- one window management of all ur downloading/uploading torrents
- allows u to change ports
- detailed info about each torrents (seeds, peers, ips, trackers)
- speed limits

it's pretty good.. :lol:

I recommend the relatively new ABC bit torrent client. :)
With all the features of shadows, looks much better, more features and better organized. This has become my new favourite.

Oh, my opinion can be trusted ... because im TRshady :P

Agreed. I use ABC now because it uses the Shad0w core client, but with a nicer GUI. Shad0w&#39;s interface is horrible.

is it ok to install shadows when i already have bittorrent 3.3?i cannot uninstall or delete 3.3 because i&#39;m still dwnloading some stuffusing 3.3 but i really want shadows because in its interface(as ive seen in infos bout it),it has a lot of info bout your current d/l or upload in the interface window.

sure you can download and install with downloads going, and you can even use it on the downloads you have going now, you would have to just restart the downloads, it will check the file and continue where you left off
