What's the best Torrent Downloader or something? It has to be fast at downloading, scans automatically the files(if possible) and is a downloadable program.
Also...Why is Frostwire better than Limewire? I can't seem to catch the difference...-_-

From my experience, utorrent seems to be the fastest. I'm not too sure if it scans the files, most likely not.
Just use your antivirus to scan it before opening it.
As for frostwire and limewire, apparently frostwire is like the pro version of limewire. Honestly I don't notice a difference imo.

uTorrent. If you want the files scanned, get an antivirus.

Yeah, I have Norton, and it's pretty good.
Is uTorrent downloadable?

I use Vuze it's really fast in my opinion or it's just my internet. Anyways it downloads torrents from Mininova.org that you search from Vuze, which is a excellent website for torrents. Vuze is like Ares except it downloads from Mininova.org instead of all found torrents on the web. The files are also virus free and checked as well as maintained by the website.

The website checks the files before they post them, from personal experience I've never gotten a virus from downloading torrents with Vuze.

Yeah, as others have said uTorrent is the best. If your scared about viruses just get a good av like kaspersky or NOD32 (not norton XD) It's also best to get your torrents froma reliable source.

Norton has sucked for a good while now. NOD32 and Kaspersky are superior.

I might get NOD32, is it free? But, I don't wanna get rid of Norton, my subscription still hasn't expired yet. XD Can you have two AV's at the same time?
EDIT: It's only Free Trial...sigh...any good AV's that are free?
