I have just wandered into the world of torrents.
Almost a year back, I downloaded BitTornado to try my luck at this .torrent thing everybody was talking about. I could never really get good download speeds, so I ended up going back to Kazaa, Limewire etc.

Well after some convincing, I decided to try again. This time I d/l BitTorrent, and found a few tracker sites. I decided to try my luck and start downloading .torrents once again. To my suprise, My speeds were decent and I was on my way to downloading 2-3 massive files a night (entertainment for the next evening).

I have found my PC is more stable downloading .torrent's , no spyware or adware with BitTorrent.

So, what client do you use to d/l .torrent's?

If you are not using a router, is there anyway to tweak your speeds.

Any client recomendations?

Anything Torrent related?

I am not to sure if this is a legal thread. I am sure it is, but I guess we will find out soon.
