Quake3World

Azureus is probably the most bloated of them all, however it's also the best (w/ features wise). It just takes some time getting it configured best to suit your needs.

Thanks for the suggestions...

After checking out a few I went with Arureus because of the features. If I have to use it I might as well go for a good client.

I read old posts and and it seems Foo and dzjepp have been swearing by Azureus for quite a while now. After using it it doesn't consume nearly as much memory as Xnews (1.4gb at times) so it's good for the occasional usage.

As far as I can see once i exit the client it's off and not serving files correct?

I didn't see any reg entries for it to start on it's own either.

I like BitComet better because it doesn't eat your resources to hell.

You want it to autostart with windows? =o

Well, there is a plugin out there that will allow you to select a bunch of items for download and sort it the way you want it (when to start, etc.)

The easier way of doing that would be to allow only 2-3 torrents at once (or as many as your connection can optimally support) and queue a bunch of other items to start after the others are done. You might need to change the seed ratio (lower it a bit) so the finished torrents are completely stopped after a given time frame and new ones in the queue can get full resources.

Or you can completely remove the auto-seeding of finished torrents if that's what you prefer.

no no I'm happy it does not start on it's own. Most file sharing apps start up with windows and stay on even after you have closed the GUI. I was stating it appears Azureus does not do that...
