I must agree, this is just awesome....i have spent a few days on this and it never exceeds 5mb of memory use even though I grab some 5-10 files at a time.

I just earned me some 100mb in resources by throwing that Azureus/Java hogger out.

All it needs is a web interface and an RSS Torrent reader and it'd be extra-great!!

one of the best..

i really like it but i have problems connecting to some trackers. i dont this problem when i use bitcomet.. i dont know what is the problem but maybe with next versions there would be some improvements. i like it because of its size and the memory usage (i've never seen it to take more than 5mb of ram)

here we go.... AGAIN!!!!!

This is mainly a bugfix release. We advise users to upgrade to this version. As always, it's in the download section.

A problem was identified in 1.1.5's partfile implementation and fixed in 1.1.6 that caused partial data downloaded for SKIPPED files to be corrupt. Data sent from skipped files or later unskipped could be corrupt. We strongly advise users to force recheck their files if they had previously been in a SKIPPED state. This issue does not affect files which were not skipped.
