The World's most popular BitTorrent client.

Micro-Sized Yet Feature Filled
Most of the features present in other BitTorrent clients are present in ÂµTorrent, including bandwidth prioritization, scheduling, RSS auto-downloading and Mainline DHT (compatible with BitComet). Additionally, ÂµTorrent supports the Protocol Encryption joint specification (compatible with Azureus 2.4.0.0 and above, BitComet 0.63 and above) and peer exchange.

Resource-Friendly
ÂµTorrent was written with efficiency in mind. Unlike many torrent clients, it does not hog valuable system resources - typically using less than 6MB of memory, allowing you to use the computer as if it weren't there at all. Additionally, the program itself is contained within a single executable less than 220 KB in size.

Skinnable and Localized
Various icon, toolbar graphic and status icon replacements are available, and creating your own is very simple. ÂµTorrent also has support for localization, and with a language file present, will automatically switch to your system language. If your language isn't available, you can easily add your own, or edit other existing translations to improve them!

Actively Developed and Improved
The developer puts in a lot of time working on features and making things more user-friendly. Releases only come out when they're ready, with no schedule pressures, so the few bugs that appear are quickly addressed and fixed.

How to get it working on Mac?

***Must have X11 (Leopard users will automatically have it installed)***
X11 for Tiger users (Works for real Macs and Hackintosh<- PC's running a hacked OSX).

1. Download the Darwine Project and install it.
2. Download Utorrent (click on the logo above to get it from the official site)
3. Double click the program to run it. (I uncheck all the shortcut links because there no good)

Enjoy Smile

Note: You want to change the "Download Location" in the "Preference" to your make drive.
