Good Torrent Downloaders

hi - I've been using BitLord, then someone at work said it
leaves you vulnerable to being spied upon and therefore
prosecuted. Among other ones he recommended was Azureus but
that's been a nightmare... can anyone recommend me any other
good Bit Torrent downloaders?

ah yes! that's one of the ones he mentioned - I'd forgotten
them all except the Azureus one.

Thanks heaps, Samb.

I heard good things about new BitComet editions. Azureus is
a hog, but I got used to it. At the beginning I was thrown
off too.

When I tried that all I kept getting were Connexion Errors
-- I had it running on port 49000 port-forwarded. It was
never able to complete the port test.

that was a mere oversight the last time! I was doing things
'by the book' and it was still fucked up!

I'm currently suffering a NAT error - how do I resolve this?

I'm wondering if the WinXP firewall is causing some of the
trouble. I've opened the port I'm using for torrents yet
they are going very slowly, if at all. My ISP does say it
limits Torrent activity but I thought changing the port to a
high one and port forwarding helped to combat this.

torrent download speed can depend highly on your upload
speeds on the same torrent, i've never been able to get any
good speeds without uploading at least 10k/s constant for
the particular torrent - when using bt to download i've
always got as much upload bandwidth going as possible
simultaneously

ah, i forgot to mention i use Azureus - its a real
resource/bandwidth hog, but i just leave it on overnight and
let it do the real work.

i always turn it off if im playing a game, sending/receiving
files on soulseek, surfing the net via a browser, or
downloading porn/etc
