Halite BitTorrent Client 0.2.7

[Copernic Reporter]

Halite BitTorrent Client 0.2.7

Halite is a open-source BitTorrent client and is based on the excellent libtorrent library from Rasterbar Software. What makes Halite stand out is its remote control interface allowing you to monitor and control the program from a mobile phone. Hailte is written in unicode so it will only run on Win2k or higher.

What's New in Halite 0.2.7:

* By default Halite will only allow one instance to be launched.

* Halite can be set as the default program for '.torrent' files.

* ETA indicator for torrents.

* Minor GUI tweaks.

Features:

While still at an early state of development Halite is a functional BitTorrent client. So far its list of features is pretty standard but that is because I want to ensure it does the basic stuff well.

That said, it supports:

* Multiple downloads

* Displays more detailed information for the selected torrent

* Connection limits both global and per-torrent

* Transfer rate limits again global and per-torrent

* Minimize to tray with transfer rate summary

* Association with ".torrent" files

* Option to limit the number of instances to one

* Estimated time remaining indicator

Planned in near future:

For a more detailed list see the Roadmap page (http://www.binarynotions.com/halite/roadmap.php).

* Support for ipfilter.dat IP blocking

* Per-torrent user selected save directory

* DHT support

Requirements:

Windows 2000 or XP (Halite is written in Unicode)
