Best torrent client?

[Kryptix]

Hi all, I've been using uTorrent for years.. Recently (in addition to being riddled with ads), it has been very buggy (not downloading properly, won't show statistics, etc)

For a Windows user, what client do you recommend that is also friendly with private trackers?

(I'm sorry if this has been covered before, I used the Search box and I couldn't find anything).

deluge

Try jumping back to the older versions of utorrent.. The newer versions sucks. Try utorrent 2.0.4 22976.. If you still don't like it. qBittorrent is a good alternative :)

uTorrent 2.2.1 :) do not use any version later then this

[ThaJay]

If you want a client other than uTorrent, I'd recommend qBittorrent. Switching back to older versions of uTorrent, namely 2.2.1, would be working just as fine. It's also encouraged by a lot of trackers.

deluge and transmission seem better suited for linux and a linux server.

He is running windows, as he stated in the OP, so there is no point in suggesting this.

[midgetcoach]

what I was trying to point out is that deluge and transmission are recommended if your using linux , "not windows".

I would go Deluge on Linux & Transmission on Mac.

So, you two are suggesting to switch to a different OS?

Oops, my bad, did not read the OP carefully enough, nope uTorrent on Windows 4 sure, sorry...
Have tried moving away from the Dark Side (Windows) now & again to Linux (various distros), but always seem to come crawling back to MickeySoft, like a bad habit you just can't break, plus I have a NAS, so hence the minor experience with Deluge & the wife has Macs so I tried Transmission a few times, which was OK.

[midgetcoach]

If you are interested in trying a new OS I would suggest ubuntu 14.04. When installed on a desktop it has a similar feel to windows. The transmission torrent client is also installed as a default.

Deluge, or downgrade your version of utorrent.
