Bitlord

so anyone use this? I am having a problem downloading some stuff... it never seems to start. I find what i want to download click on it.. and the percentage is always 0.0% and rate is always 0.. hmm am i doing something wrong?

I use ABC... Another Bittorrent Client. Its a really awesome program.

i've been promoting bitlord for a while now, where ya been?
i've actually never had this problem... which is why i love it... every torrent i've put in it dled

i have bitlord too. I love it, its fast and never fails me. Sry to hear about the problem. R u sure its the program and not the torrent. Try another one taht ppl have said has worked. I lover torrentspy.com b/c they have a message board for each torrent.

i had that same problem. It is probably your firewall that is ****ing with it. Try disabling your windows default firewall and using another outside program like zone alarm. You could try reinstalling too. Bitlord is by far the best torrent program I have used, and I have tried over 30 different ones.
hit me up if you need more detailed help.

azerues is better than bitlord, but if you have a router you will need to forward port 6881 on your router setup page(dont know if that is the bitlord default port too) but you should be able to change the option in bitlord.

...no it's not.
trust me on this, it's been tested....by me

okay i believe you......

so you are telling me that you took the same exact torrent from the same source and loaded the torrent into azerues and bitlord at the same time and the bitlord torrent finished first? Because that is the only way to tell for sure.

IMO its the torrent itself and how many people that are seeding it that matter the most, not the client.

so call me a newby.. but i just wanted to Download some crap.. dont understand all this seeding crap... anyone care to break down the 101 of it?

well about your orignal question, the reason that it isnt working might be because you have a router, in which case you just need to forward port 6881 and it will work. if you are not connection through a router then if might just be because you are downloading torrents that no one is seeding or giving out, so there is no one to download it from. hench no download speed.

a seed is just someone who already has the file and is sharing it, the more seeds there are, the faster the dl will be...torrents are a little diifferent from regular p2p networks cause you first dl the torrent file (very small, a few kbs) from a site like www.thepiratebay.org or www.torrentspy.com ...then you open the torrent file with a program like bitlord, and it handles the rest...hope that helps, it's easier than it sounds.

EDIT: NEWBY!

so say i wanted to download a program, for the purpose of simplifing this exercise we shall refer to the program as "Program" so i go to one of those websites do a search for "Program" and from there i can download the torrent.. the torrent I will open with the Bitlord program and that will in exchange start downloading "Program" for me ? is that all right ? or am i missing something ? Thanks B!!

BAM, you got it...no problem!

sweet cant wait to get home and try this.. Hey Bent congrats your about to break the 3k post mark!!

hahaha, i didn't even notice.....YAY, HAPPY 3K TO ME!!!...god i'm a freakin post whore

yes you are a total PW!!
Remember when we were looking for the link to the comparison chart on the B5's... back then we had the same post count.. so damn your a whore!!

Someday I will be that high!

someday i will teach the ways of whoring

the force is strong with this one

No. Use bitlord. 10X better. Tom, download the torrent from that link, then using bitlord, go to 'File'-->'Open Torrent'... find the torrent... then it'll pop up a window of which parts of the torrent you want to download (usually all... but this feature comes in handy when you're downloading music compilations and you can pick and choose what tracks you want) and just let 'er dl.

EDIT: As a comparison... I downloaded one torrent (5 Full CDs from artist) off torrentspy.com using BitLord and Azereus at the exact same time...
Azereus - 7hours 37minutes
BitLord - 59minutes

decision is up to you

I have bitlord, And can download files with no problems, However I can not get these files onto DVD ( as they are dvd films )
Tried Nero, Wont do it, And have tried to convert the files with Power ISO, But again no luck, Please help !!!!
Total newbie

Hi welcome to the forums... what a odd first post.. but anywho, I have a program that will do all that, just cant remember the name, I will try and figure it out when I get home later tonight and post it up..

ive used bitlord for a while. it works u just need to find the most strenght on the file u want. ive also noticed with many torrent download the clients and the torrent just play hard and sometime dont download. i think its just something with the whole system.

All of my downloads with that program stop at like 86% and 99%. I never get the full file, and it really pissed me off, so I don't use that program anymore. I never could get any of the torrent downloader's to work, so I guess I'll have to give that ABC downloader a try. Thank's to whoever said that.
