i've been using azureus for quite a while with fairly decent success. of course always looking for someting better and would like to shy away from java based if possible.
anyone with good things to say about bit-lord?

if something works for you, why would you try and not use it? i have been using the same version of winamp for years.

AOL works great for me. I love the chatroom feature.

It's derived from Bitcomet (or 'Bitvomit' as some have christened it).

can't wait for mozilla to create a torrent client, or add this functionality to FF

utorrent seems to work good with firefox. it has a little search bar you can configure to search torrent sites. if you have ff open it will only spawn a new tab.

yes, it works for me too, in the sense that things are downloaded. shame searching torrentspy gives me script errors and endless activeX wank in IE, which i now despise more than cucumber, which means i despise the shit out of it

BitTornado is cool but I'm not too poor to buy legal copies if I want to.

Trying this out now. What are your guys settings for it. I'v been D/L for about a hour now and have uploaded 170mb and down 140mb. I only have a 768/128 dsl connection going here.
