BitLord-Phylis-moved from comments

I use BitLord, have for some

I use BitLord, have for some time. Interface is very easy to navigate for those new to torrents. When downloading a torrent with several files, you can select / deselect which files to download. Probably a fancy name for that function but I'm far from being a torrent pro.



BitLord is based upon an old

BitLord is based upon an old buggy Bitcomet code and is banned at all private trackers.

Last I looked, BitLord did not even have encryption, a feature that is helpful to most all users.
Also, its DHT is not a proper one and that can affect speed as DHT will find additional people active on the torrent.

uTorrent has all the features that BitLord has, , and more, with a smaller footprint.
uTorrent is a better choice.

I think the term they use is "selective downloading" option.

Well thanks for the feedback

Well thanks for the feedback on BitLord. Didn't know all that and haven't paid much attention as I don't use torrents that much. Will give uTorrent a try. Love these reviews and comments. Very useful.

I think you will be happier

I think you will be happier with uTorrent.
If not, then you can always switch back. Torrents can be moved between clients.
Thanks for the comments.

 

I have installed BitLord and will run it with the others on my next test run (although unlikely to be suggested due to its being banned at private trackers).
But I did want to post its memory use of 16,268K, which puts it on the higher end of the basic clients,
