  1. The best just got even better!

    I haven't been here lately but just happened to stop by when you uploaded 1.6. :D

    I've been having some trouble with my hd so hopefully the new stats graphs and settings help.

    The only complaint I have is that 1.6 reset my columns.

    Thanks. :)

  2. My RSS downloader was supposed to download a torrent tonight. The filter picked the correct torrent and added it to history but the torrent didn't appear on the list. Log says "unable to load xxxxxxxx.torrent".

    When I hit "update now" the torrent appeared on the list and started right away.

    I think µTorrent should retry if there's a problem.

  3. I also noticed that 1.4 uses less cpu than 1.3

    My torrent machine has a 600MHz VIA cpu with 512MB ram. The system was really stressed when I was seeding 6 torrents with 1.3 - even the mouse cursor didn't move smoothly.

    But now with 1.4 I'm seeding 9 torrents and using all of my bandwidth without problems.

  4. When I joined the torrent world I was introduced to Azureus. I used it until it was banned from my favorite site. They recommended BitComet and I was very reluctant to try it. Quickly I started to like it and soon it was my only client. I have tried Azureus once in a while but it just eats all the resources and I don't even need all the features. A few days ago I was forced to stop using BitComet and to find a new client. µtorrent filled the void and I'm extremely happy.

    On my 24/7 torrent machine I was using BitSpirit because that was the only one that had enough features and was light enough to run on my 600MHz VIA Epia CL. I would have used BitComet but it refused to run on my Win98Lite - I think it didn't like the fact that I have removed IE completely. BitSpirit is now banned at one of my favorite trackers so I tried µTorrent and it works great. Light and fast - and doesn't stress the HD too much like BitSpirit does.

    Thanks to everyone involved!!!
