KTorrent for Linux

For those of you who are newbies to Linux and are looking for a software that can do the same work as Bittorrent commonly used in Ms Windows then you can try:-

KTorrent

KTorrent is a BitTorrent program for KDE. You can use it to download and upload files on the BitTorrent network. This package contains the latest revision of KTorrent 2.2 series which is the last release for KDE3.


Additional KTorrent features include:

* uTorrent compatible peer exchange

* Zeroconf extension to find peers on the local network

* WebGUI plugin

* RSS plugin

* Grouping feature to put torrents into groups

* Downloads torrent files

* Upload and download speed capping

* Speed limits for individual torrents

* Internet searching using various search engines, you can even add your own

* UDP Trackers

* Port forwarding with UPnP

* IP blocking plugin

* Importing of partially or fully downloaded files

* Support for distributed hash tables (mainline version)

* Protocol encryption

* Bandwith scheduling

* Directory scanner to automatically load torrents in certain directories

* Trackers can now be added to torrents

* File prioritization for multi file torrents

* Option to fully preallocate diskspace to avoid fragmentation

* Diskspace monitoring, with option to stop torrents when diskspace is running low

* Statistics plugin


I hope this will be your download solution if you are new on Linux. I have tested it on my Debian Lenney 5.0 and also on OpenSuse 10.3, 11.0 and 11.1 and it works just fine.
