my torrent client (BitTornado) keeps freezing up after downloading a tiny bit, which is highly frustrating because i can't just afk while it downloads ;(
anyone recommend a better one?
thanks

Ive been using Azureus for as long as i can remember, its a java based client and is in my opinion the best client you can get (having tried around 5 or 6 of the 'popular' ones).

I tried bitcomet a while back, but that was subsequently banned from the torrent site i use due to its security holes, other than that, was also a fairly nice client. However if you havent tried azureus, give it a go. Currently allows you to cap individual download/upload speeds, overall download/upload speeds. Very easy interface, and overalll very good client.

careful about azureus, as its java your more than likely to get some nasty viruses with it, so always check it first.
but yeh, thats the one i use, and its probably the best you will get.
