Product Description:

Azureus brings the popular Java-based BitTorrent client to a new level of stability, usability, and speed. Very actively developed, this latest version includes a new split-window MyTorrents view with support for categories and advanced downloading / seeding / queuing rules for powerful and automated torrent management, a customizable user interface, seeding from read-only media, and significant reductions in resource usage.

The multiplatform Azureus client greatly extends the original python client's feature set, with: managing multiple downloads at once from a single GUI window, detailed real-time download statistics with export to XML, advanced download and seeding management rules, configuration and torrent creation wizards, embedded tracker for easy and automated hosting of your own files, PeerGuardian IP address filtering, web browser and console UIs, 27 available languages, a powerful plugin interface, and much much more.

What's new in this version:

  • Ability to rate directly from rating reminder activity entry [TuxPaper]
  • Added progress spinner animation for the LightBox[knguyen]
  • Don't auto-UDP probe on initial announce if tracker not known to support UDP - hit on second and remember outcome [Parg]
  • Improve startup times by taking various torrent-load operations off main thread [Parg]
  • Add reason-messages for update check failures [Parg]
  • Use derived password to protect private key to allow us to persist password [Parg]
  • Get plugin update URL from version server to support potential future switch [Parg]
  • Run explicit tracker scrapes off UI thread to prevent blocking [Parg]
  • Allow UI initialisation to proceed before plugin init complete [Parg]
  • Always start on "Dashboard" tab (unless Advanced UI chosen), instead of sometimes starting on "On Vuze" tab [TuxPaper]
  • Ensure that DHT republish events are scheduled using absolute time so recover correctly from computer suspend [Parg]
  • Handle some badly formed torrents more gracefully (corrupt announce-lists) [Parg]
  • Handle multiple SSL certs from same URL [Parg]
  • URLDecode torrent filenames [Parg]
  • Fix non-crypto fallback outgoing connections [Parg]
  • Better (esp for Vista) detection of and setting of Azureus' .torrent file association [TuxPaper]
  • Fix broken per-torrent upload speed setting via options tab [Parg]
  • Fix alternating bg color not updating after changing in config [TuxPaper]
  • Fix resource leaks related to light box (login window) [knguyen]

Azureus BitTorrent Client CommentaryStill the same - Version: 4.3.0.4, 11/21/2009 11:00PM PST

Even though the list of fixes make it seem like it were the bee's knees, it insists on keeping the same bland and useless startup screen.

You may indeed opt out of the Vuze Toolbar. However, when installing the wording it puts up makes you think you're rejecting the EULA, instead of just opting out of the toolbar. Beware.

It still gives you the semi-blank bland and useless startup screen! Anyone know how to reset the thing?

Oh, and it also insists on installing the Vuze Toolbar on your browser, with minimal or no indications on how to opt out. Luckily, have Firefox in high security mode so that killed the highjacking attempt.

Azureus BitTorrent Client Troubleshooting ReportMain window won't appear - Version: 4.3a, 11/16/2009 12:55PM PST

The main window just shows up as all gray, I guess I'll keep using 4.2.0.8, and to everyone who keeps saying you don't have a choice to install the toolbar, on the second screen of the installer you can uncheck the box that says "I agree to the terms and want to install the toolbar". Hope that helps and I hope this problem with the main menu is fixed soon.
