and if so , whats the diff ?
how many are  out there?
 and is one  better than the other?

[Shrike]

I use Bittornado, which works pretty well for me.

[Saturn2004]

well thanks  for the info  shrike
where would i get bittornado?

and can you please  help me  with a msn  problem?
some  one  accidentally  reset my msn messenger password and it was sent to  my old dial up  account  which i  no longer   use and i  cant  sign up again  due to the  companies  rules
is there any way  in which  i can  retrieve the password?
'cuz    i had  some  eighty  ppl on that contact list and i  didnt  write them all down  so unless  a miracle  happens  i would  have  lost  all contact  with most of my friends
hope you can help

Azureus is good too if you've got the RAM for it.

Shareaza does BT, eDonkey, and Gnutella / Gnutella2... So I use that.

I use Azureus myself.  It is rather resource-heavy, but it's a very capable program.

[kode]

I don't know why you're saying that, really. I run azureus on a 1ghz comp with 256mb ram, and I don't really get any slowdowns even after 2 weeks of the computer running, with azureus.

or maybe I actually know how to tune the system for better performance?

lol i got a friend at the univeristy that used azureus and administrators    at school accused him one day scanning the schools entire network, while he was using it to download a tvshow

Agreed - using it, too.

[vyper]

BitComet and never had a problem with it.

I guess it could have looked for other clients on the LAN too
Probably can be tuned not to do so...I use Azureus too.

I use it too. Azureus rocks. Although I don't ues it too often, but it gives me better speeds than most FTPs.

The number of companies setting up a BT tracker for their downloads is increasing.

BT is the future.

BTW Azureus needs much ram? I never noticed that... but I don't care on the other hand. I got 1,5 GB Ram, so I think I will never have problems with Azureus.

[Windrunner]

i've herad bitcomet is also good..

[RangerKarl]

I like BitComet right now, and I used to use Bittornado,which is a nice step up from the stock BT client.

I don't know about you, but I find that it does slow my system down, and I have a 3-ghz P4 with HT and 512 megs of RAM. And I'll be damned if I know how to tweak my machine.

I've heard that Azureus works far better with older versions of Java, as the older versions of JRE weren't so much of a resource whore as the newer ones.
