				| 
 |  
				| After I have downloaded something (in Bit Comet) and close down the program, I can't seem to find how to re-start the seeding later. 
 Is there a way?

				| I always had that problem with bitcomet also.  I've switched over to Azureus anyways because apparently bitcomet is shite and slows down transfers for everyone or something.  I have to say that I like Azureus a lot more. |  |

				| bitcomet, doesnt slow you down, it actually uses cheating techniques to speed you up, thus reasons why it is banned. |  |

				| I like how Bit Comet opperates behind a lot of my programs, it doesn't seem too memory intesive. 
 No ideas on the seeding though guys?

				| to re-seed, click on the torrent again, it will d/l the announce and will verify the file is the same .. it will then begin to seed. |  |

				| The major torrent sites I use (tvtorrents, demonoid) work no problem with bit comet. What major trackers have banned it? Does piratebay ban it? I haven't used that site in a long, long time. I read it's become the overlord of torrent sites. 
 Yeah azareus uses java runtime and can slow your system to a crawl. Bit comet plays well with others.

 that did it. If I double click on the file it starts to seed.
 
 Thanks guys.

Many of the private torrent sites have banned bitcomet. A nice alternative with a small memory footprint and encryption is http://www.utorrent.com/.

				| I've used all three programs and it seems like Utorrent is the slowest of them all.  I'm not sure why this is the case but to verify this I try to d/l 3 movie files from the same torrents and utorrent was the slowest for some reason.  I'm starting to see Azureus takes too much cpu usage and sometimes locks my comp that I can't do anything.  Bit commit has been treating me pretty well for what I use. |  |

				| My favorite is definitely bittornado.  It is the fastest in my opinion.  It works alot like bitcomet but without the cheating. |  |

				| I second that.  I've used Bittornado for a long time now and it's great.  Yeah many sites private sites have banned bitcomet.  Heck if it's able to be used to cheat then I totally agree with the decision. |  |
