I like BitComet. Have used Azureus but seemed to get alot more hack attempts so I switched back to BitComet.

I use TorrentStorm. Easy, straightforward. Electro mentioned something about people trying to hack him.. I've never ran into anything like that using TorrentStorm. Didn't know torrents were particularly succeptable to that. *shrugs*

Easy to use, and one of the fastest clients I have ever tried.
i never used any of these programs, do you need to open ports on firewall to do so?
Ill second BitTornado. You need to forward ports 6881-6889 on your firewall/router to get the best out of bit torrent.

I like this one, too. It's just like the standard BT client, but it has lots of nifty other features that make it a more robust tool. :)

BitTornado if you want each torrent to have its own download window, feels more like a default/oem kinda thing. Azeurus if you want a frontend for all the torrents at once, feels like a p2p/kazaa kinda thing.

BitTornado
I used bitorrent UNTIL i found ABC. It is the greatest BT client I have EVER used. In fact, it is a heavily modified version of Bittornado. You must, must, must check it out.
EDIT: I almost forgot to mention that it seems to forward ports, etc. by itself :beer:

Used to use PTC and ABC, but now use azureus
Azureus. I didn't like Bit Tornado. I used ABC but it sucked the donky *bleep* ;)
Azureus, haven't experimented with any others really and Azureus gave me no reason to do so :thup:

Used to use BitTornado, but now I use BitComet. I really like it. It's a lot like Azerus, but different.
Definitely worth looking at.

BitTornado, i like it simple...
Azureus is now what I use, and I love it.
