BitTornado 0.3.9

Popular Experimental BitTorrent Client

What's new in 0.3.9:
- Updated for Python 2.4
- More bugs fixed
- GUI width problem known, will be fixed later
- Randomized port selection

BitTorrent is a protocol designed for transferring files. It is peer-to-peer in nature, as users connect to each other directly to send and receive portions of the file. However, there is a central server (called a tracker) which coordinates the action of all such peers. The tracker only manages connections, it does not have any knowledge of the contents of the files being distributed, and therefore a large number of users can be supported with relatively limited tracker bandwidth. The key philosophy of BitTorrent is that users should upload (transmit outbound) at the same time they are downloading (receiving inbound.) In this manner, network bandwidth is utilized as efficiently as possible. BitTorrent is designed to work better as the number of people interested in a certain file increases, in contrast to other file transfer protocols.

BitTornado 0.3.9a

Note : The T-0.3.9a release contains a bugfix for the tracker, and the modified installer includes a DLL which is missing on some people's systems. If you're already successfully running T-0.3.9 on your system, there's no need to upgrade.

Ive tried alot of the clients and found this was best for me. Other users will prefer other clients. But I find this to be the best.

I still gotta get the new version (still got 0.3.8).
