... I did a quick round of 5 random-ish torrent sites & found that transmission is specifically banned on 4 of them. I have heard elsewhere that the overzealous announcing by transmission has been solved, but the fact remains that you can get banned from numerous trackers for using it...


Which sites?

In transmission, on the tracker status, you can see a message when the client is banned..

PC -- Microtorrent

Mac -- Have not found a good client. Azureus is too bloated.

I like Azarues, never been a problem for me.

I like all the features and feel like I need most of them. (even if you don't ned em at first, eventually they'll come in handy)

thumbsup_anim.gif Highly reccomended.
