Using peer-to-peer technology is great for downloading large files. Particularly software that has recently been released. Often you spend so long trying to get on to the software website – along with everyone else – that you just end up giving up. It’s too slow.
However, you’ll find that other people have downloaded the software you want, so why not make that software (legally) available as a Torrent file and share it with others? They can then download from you and others, quickly.
The problem with Bittorrent is that it’s a rather basic tool. Does the job, but fairly simply. BitComet is a free file sharing tool that is Bittorrent compatible. It ships with a fantastic interface, which makes it a pleasure to use if you’re sharing files on a daily basis. You can queue files to download, auto-resume downloads, set speed limits, change your ports and much more.

Spyware or just Intrusive?
BitComet 1.12 seems extemely intrusive and demands to install on it's terms unless you are alert. Also on uninstalling this program almost immediately, my computer settings were mucked up, and I had to use System restore to get up and running again! My advice would be leave well alone. McAfee gives a warning regarding this program also.
