stihia Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 The installation package install itself and contains also the language pack.For the standalone version you must create a folder, move the .exe file there and then execute it.µTorrent is simply lighter, faster, accepted (even recommended) by all major private trackers and, generally, better.To avoid any problems read this first: http://www.utorrent.com/setup_guide.phpGood luck!

Firon Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 You don't have to make a folder with the standalone version. Just run it in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emtec666 Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 @ stihia: lighter: yesfaster: the sameaccepted by most private trackers: yes, but Azureus is too better: mmm I don't agree-> n00b friendliness and "lightness": uTorrent, feature wise: Azureus (also has better DHT implementation)I use both clients Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 It's faster in the sense that it uses less resources.Azureus suffers from the connectability issue with private trackers now (they broke something in 2.5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Doesn't really matter, actually -- depends on what you're more comfortable with, or what you prefer. In the end, all the installer does is copy the utorrent.exe into Program Files\uTorrent and utorrent.lng into %appdata%\uTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
