BitTorrent 7.6 Build (26823)

BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer program developed by Bram Cohen and BitTorrent, Inc. used for uploading and downloading files via the BitTorrent protocol.

BitTorrent was the first client written for the protocol. It is often nicknamed Mainline by developers denoting its official origins.

Since version 6.0 the BitTorrent client has been a rebranded version of µTorrent. As a result, it is no longer open source and is currently available for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X.

So what sets BitTorrent apart from other BitTorrent clients?

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

Resource-Friendly
BitTorrent was written with efficiency in mind. Unlike many other BitTorrent clients, it does not hog valuable system resources, allowing you to use the computer as if it weren’t there at all. Additionally, the program itself is very portable, being contained within a single executable small in file size.

Skinnable and Localized
Various icon, toolbar graphic and status icon replacements are available, and creating your own is very simple. BitTorrent 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 developers put 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.

BitTorrent is also available for Mac OS X & Linux.
