BitTorrent++ alpha

BitTorrent++ is an improved version of BitTorrent - the well-known file sharing client that relies on peer-to-peer connections.

The interface of the program is pretty minimalistic. You can add a torrent from a file or from an URL. Once you initiate BitTorrent++, tasks start automatically. Here you can view the file name, size, transferred size, speed, progress, status, as well as elapsed and remaining time.

By accessing the context menu on each torrent, you can cancel or pause it, and move it up or down. Plus, you can view history and a log file when it comes to general information, seeds and downloads (timestamp and message).

In the "Preferences" menu, you can set output directories (torrent, incoming, temporary, history) and basic options (e.g. enable to automatically start new downloads, set the maximum number of simultaneous downloads, use background hashing).

You can also check the option to "Ask confirmation when exiting BitTorrent++", configure proxy settings, as well as set a password for the tray and enable to automatically lock the tray on minimize.

The program uses a moderate amount of system resources and manages to complete a task in a reasonable amount of time. However, there is no help file available.

BitTorrent++ is a very good tool for uploading and downloading data, and we especially recommend it to those users who want a simple and effective torrent client.
