General Software Discussion / wanted: simple, stable bittorrent client for windows
« on: October 25, 2009, 03:29 PM »
I often download large files, like iso images, via FTP that are also available via bittorrent. Things like linux distros and such. I have an virtual machine with Windows XP that runs for the sole purpose of doing things like downloading large files, uploading large files, compressing archives, synchronizing directories, etc. I would like to add a simple and stable bittorrent client to it so it can also grab (and share) stuff in the background.
I've heard of µTorrent, but hear that it "cheats" (which I don't want to do) and the original BitTorrent, but I hear that it has commercial crapware embedded (if it does, I don't want it) and Vuze/Azuerus, but I don't want to install Java just for that.
I don't do much torrenting, so nothing elaborate and feature rich is required (but is not a reason to not use it if it's good).
Whatall to youall suggest?
