# Fuck Azureus off.
I used it for a while and it did exactly the same. uTorrent is so much better IMO.

# Azureus has been a dead project
for over a year. It is now the money hungry, commercial Vuse.

Never understood why you'd want a java based torrent client that will just allow java to leech up all your available memory until the system is on its arse.
Utorrent ( or micro torrent to give it its proper name ) all the way. ( but not the beta version as most trackers won't allow betas to connect ).

# will do - it looks sehr gut
can it pick up partial torrents or will i have to wait til azureus finishes all this lot?

# just set your current download folder
as your utorrent download folder in the preferences and then reopen all your torrents in utorrent.
Or alternatively set a new download folder and copy all your azureus downloaded stuff to that folder ( making sure that any appended, unfinished file extensions for both programs is switched off. ( so not xxx.avi.ut! just xxx.avi for example ).
