Has anyone here used Bitcomet 0.86?
I upgraded from 0.84 to 0.86 (mainly because Bitcomet kept telling me a newer version was available) and couldn't download anything. I uninstalled 0.86 and put 0.84 back on and everything worked fine again. Any ideas what went wrong? I used the default settings for both 0.84 and 0.86, so I would have expected both to work.
Also, if anyone here has a spare invite code for Demonoid, I would be glad to take it off your hands.
Hope someone can help!

I've used Bitornado for the past couple of years with no probs, perhaps you could try that.
:wink: Sorry haven't used Bitcomet before.

think the same thing happened to me on bitcomet. I now use azureus.

I had a problem with Bitcomet when I got Vista - had to go all the way back to 0.70 to get it to work - you could try that version?

Azureus for me every time. I like the new Azureus Vuze - gives you lots of legitimate downloads on the front screen, whilst running the standard Azureus 2.5 client under the skin.

I'm on XP and 0.84's working fine for me so I was surprised that 0.86 didn't. I might have a look at Azureus though like Wilko and Keyser suggested as it sounds a bit more stable.

Wilko, whats Azureus Vuze?

It's just the standard Azureus client, with a "skin" with featured legitimate content, and allows you to browse movie trailers and other free downloads. Its pretty cool.

Azureus, Demonoid, Mongoloid
