    So what do you guys use for your direct connecting needs and what would you recommend, i was using Shakespeer but it was a bit dodgy.
    It would continue downloading things i had told it to stop downloading amongst other problems.
    So now i'm on the market for a new program.
    Cheers!

    Bittorrent's where it's at.
    I suggest Transmission (and maybe Azureus on the side).

    Torrents are all well and good when something is new and has lots of seeders but when that isn't the case Direct Connect is what you need!

    I use Transmission btw, great program

    Afaik they're all kinda crap but it's been a while. Check out Valknut, that's what I used to use.
