I just use the Opera Browser as it supports torrent downloads within it :)

I know that the Opera torrent client had some security issues early on, but they seem to have been resolved.
I still see comments from users that it has trouble with larger torrent content and that they still maintain a separate bittorrent client.
Your comment came as I was finishing up my review so no time to insert now anyways.
I will take a look into Opera on my next revision.

I did not bother to download this to check out its bittorrent function as it is missing important features, such as DHT, encryption, RSS support etc.. According to what I have read the bittorrent function adds about 5000K in memory use to the browser. This makes uTorrent (944K) a much wiser choice as less memory will be used overall and you will have a better bittorrent client.
