0 Impossible Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 I used utorrent, but after I tried bitcomet, I preffered that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Master Shake Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 I used to swear by Azureus but I always ended up having a wierd problem with it. After a while it would my computer crash. I could never figure out why. I would end up reinstalling windows which would fix the problem for a few weeks but it would always come back. I tried reinstalling java and everything. I finally said to hell with it and went to uTorrent and never looked back. It has good speeds, doesn't take much memory and has everything I need. We're getting married next month.

0 a1v1n Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 am going to give my vote to BitComet. BitComet has been doing a good job for me since i started using it. wanted to give uTorrent a try after so many people talked about how good and small it is but after trying, uTorrent just doesn't work for me.

0 Squall_Leonheart Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Bitcomet here, my first thought was to vote for utorrent but i found problem surfing (sometime) the internet with it running. Too bad, have to stick with bitcomet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 virgo89 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Hi, Im using uTorrent and i did the port forward wizard that starts up on the first time you use the app. The problem i get is that any port i type in is blocked. I was wondering what ports you guys use as the more common ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 OverBrn Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Liked ABC the best till Utorrent came out. Now I only use Utorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 snypa Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 uTorrent kills every other torrent client, very fast if configured properly, very light, and doesn't slow internet like the others. Was using BitComet but that was terrible, used Azureus, but hate the Java, was using 200k, and killed my internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 riahc3 Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I dont know how anyone can say Azureus. Its memory usage sucks. BitComet no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 way2quik Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 anyone use utorrent and has DHT enabled? i remember when i had a SMC router and having utorrent enable DHT literally killed my router. i now have a dlink, do you think it can handle the DHT connections? thanks.

0 PiracyX Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I dont know how anyone can say Azureus. Its memory usage sucks. BitComet no doubt. I think its sucks aswell! I used to use the original client then i moved to bitspirit and i really liked it until utorrent got released and that has changed me forever mainly because no other can match its speed and memory usage.
