    and the oldschool client marches on ... all of the other ones were horrible and had far too many bugs .

    this and bitspirit were the only ones worth downloading . i dont care for all of the bloat and functions bitspirit has , though . this is straight to the point and works . thats all i needed ..

    This new version is really nice, but I personally think there are better alternatives like the Java-based Azureus.

    Would like more of a GUI, but It it's pretty good all the same. This version has been out for a while BTW.

    DOES the job! Isn't bloated, is simple and don't crash that often like others do.

    I am told by the author that it is intentional for brute-force attempts to be limited to 14 characters (because of the infeasibility of brutsexy costumessexy Lingerieforce attacks on relatively long passwords). But it still shouldn't pop up and tell you that it accepts lengths up to 255.
