I really enjoyed using this app until last January or so I mentioned that it had been banned from many sites, due to the fact that it was using old, unsecure and unreliable Transmission code -- so I contacted the developer and he said it wasn't much of a deal, he just had to update the libraries etc. and then would post an update...

Only he never did...!!! I haven't been able to use Xtorrent for over a year now and as it now turns out he doesn't even bother anymore, since he stopped development on it...!?! Before that I alwaays thought that the negative comments and reviews about him were a bit over the top, but I can understand them now...!

Just like he promised bloggers who would write about NewsFire a preview of the new version by the end of last year -- it never happened...!

It's kind of sad though, I liked using Xtorrent, espcially for the included RSS reader...but just like so many others I will from now on stay away from any software Mr. Watanabe may publish...!
