BitSpirit is a BitTorrent client developed to help you take full advantage of this popular file sharing protocol, thus providing great download speed and a user friendly interface. Just like other applications in this category, BitSpirit is specifically designed to help users download the files without interfering with other functions.
The interface however is very similar to the one used by other BitTorrent clients, packing the basic components in the main window. Thus, you can easily access the downloaded torrent files using the list on the left of the screen, while the right side provides info about the current downloads or uploads. It also comes with a rich Settings menu as well as a Settings Wizard for easier customization of the application.
BitSpirit offers an impressive array of features such as schedule downloading, proxy support, UPnP portmapping, disk cache, chatting, DHT networks or NAT traversal (UDP transport). It works seamlessly and does not require a high performance computer to run on. It also allows global limitations for both download and upload.
The Functions selection menu of BitSpirit bring quite interesting options to the table, including a tool that helps you create torrent files or patch the TCP/IP in order to break down the limitations imposed by your Windows installation. You can also access the `Shutdown Options`, `Login Protect` or `Reload IPFilter.dat` or `Refresh DHT Nodes`.
The Setting Wizard tool requires users to select their Internet connection type in order to auto-customize the parameters of the application. You can also switch to an advanced view and take control over the much sophisticated settings that include Download / Upload Limit, Max Connections or Upload slots. It also provides options like virus scanning or nickname selection for the P2P chat.
The bottom line is pretty simple - BitSpirit does not stand in the same spot as BitTorrent, µTorrent, Vuze or even Xunlei, but it still is one of the first clients out on the market and has its share of fans. Its strong points reside in low resource consumption, nifty interface and last but not least – ease-of-use.
