I've tried them all over the past few years. Now stick with the "new" Vuze. Although it has a much larger footprint than e.g. uTorrent, it features a distributed trackerless network, which allows users to find and download content from peers even when they can't find anything on a web tracker. Also downloads multiple torrents at the same time. If e.g. your torrent resides on multiple sites, Vuze downloads that torrent from multiple sites resulting in truly "blazing" downloads.

Tixati is also worth looking at. Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent with an attractive interface and low RAM use. It also has an excellent support system with a very responsive forum.

That said, of course to each his own. For more info visit: http://www.makeuseof...ents-downloads/ for a review of the top 4 torrents.

More at www.vuze.com and www tixati.com.

Latest utorrent is adware. Suggest qBittorrent instead, very similar. http://qbittorrent.s...et/download.php

is that not for linux only?

No.

Also have seen no reports of adware on Utorrent, maybe you or someone downloaded from another site and not the main utorrent site.

Google is your friend. Here are two:

See a number of good reports about Vuse. Tried the old Vuse, didn't like it. Might try the new one, however.

I have Tixati on my Linux netbook and like it.
