I've personally gone for this one. Nice and simple, with small icons that match the rest of my desktop.

Well, coming back to the main topic for the thread.....

Just reformatted and decided to try Azureus since I've never had brilliant speeds with the other bittorrent clients I've tried. Currently downloading the BF2 demo, and its averaging between 80-100kB/s! Almost the fastest speeds I've had downloading anything ever!

WooYay!

The best bittorrent client i've found is BitComet, it blew Azureus away

It isn't, it's a skin/app that overwrites all the xp icons/skins, as opposed to runnign software like windows blinds which take up resources on your machine.
