Reviewing 3.6.0.500 (Oct 26, 2010)
Although I haven't downloaded this program to try it... I'd like to provide my opinion... I stick with vuze classic interface, because of it's many configuration problems... I found in utorrent I had to micromanage the queue of downloaded torrents to insure they reached 1:1 upload/download ratio.

Well,in a head to head test , tixati blows BitSpirit out of the water, no contest. I have tried many bittorrent clients and tixati is the fastest most reliable client I have tried.
Reviewing 3.6.0.362 (Mar 26, 2010)
Has a reasonably nice interface and is loaded with options, but it's slow downloading compared to uTorrent and it uses a lot of memory. Overall a good program that needs some work to be in comparison to uTorrent. If you want an alternative go with Halite, it's much better.

Have been using BitSpirit since is appeared out from nowhere. Then somehow BitSpirit wen under the radar, I was sure project was dead so I dropped it in favor of uTorrent, but... BitSpirit is BACK. It is better it is faster it will save the world... well perhaps not, but I'm glad I can switch over to my favorite torrent client.
Like description says, it is fast, lightweight and very advanced. Word of caution though, i have run in to trouble when I had two devices on the same subnet with UPNP. It was my fault in setting up one router, it shouldn't have UPNP on. Therefore if BitSpirit status says that Port Forward has failed, check your network it may be YOUR FAULT and not the software.
Cheers :)

@Havokdan:
You can uncheck Ask Toolbar in uTorrent while installing and something has to make money when apps are freeware...
