mancode20 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) Can anyone sell me on why I should use UTorrent over BitComet? The old, reliable 0.70 version. Not the newer one, which I have heard has some speed issues. I'm thinking of switching. One thing I don't like about BitComet is, it seems to slow down and sometimes stop my web browsing. It'll return server errors when I try to connect to sites. It usually clears up after awhile, though. Still, a little annoying. I suspect it's because I may not have the speed settings correct. My connection is 3 down, 768 up. What should my settings be, so I can download/seed the torrent while still being able to load sites somewhat fast? Anyone have issues with UTorrent slowing down browsing? Edited January 27, 2009 by mancode20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neufuse Veteran Posted February 5, 2009 Veteran Share Posted February 5, 2009 does uTorrent even support ipfilter's? or dedicated torrent networks for use in corporations? we always wanted that to distribute large files between locations in the past..
