Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Does anyone else use Azureus? I loaded the newest version a couple of days ago, and since then, haven't been able to download any torrents. I've uninstalled/reinstalled it a couple of times, and no joy.

Any ideas? I've reached the end of my limited abilities, computer-wise.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Erin, same thing happened to me. I now use BitTornado. I did everything the Azureus help files said to do, and then heard from Dana I wasn't alone in my grief, and promptly stopped troubleshooting.

I only use BitTornado because it was the first thing I downloaded. It's not nifty like Azureus used to be, with the multiple downloads in one interface, or anything.

I accidentally started Azureus this morning, and it complained about my Java version (which it didn't do any other time between upgrade and now) -- maybe this weekend I'll upgrade and see if that fixes it.

Thanks, ita. I'll try Bit Tornado.

I hate updates. I had no problems whatsoever with Azureus until I updated it.

This is all hypothetical until my computer arrives, but people who've used both, what (if any), are the significant differences between Firefox and Camino for OSX?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Firefox is updated more often than Camino, so it will have fewer bugs, but beyond that, it's pretty much a matter of trying them both and seeing which one you like the best.

All is well that ends in pizza.

BitTornado has hidden settings you can play with. "Advanced" is scary but helpful

My PC is now tidily downloading Veronica Mars. I've been missing my TV fix this week, dammit!

Thanks again.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay, I'm loving Safari on OS 10.3.9 -- what are the benefits of Firefox over Safari?

From what I can tell (having installed it on the G5 here at work), Firefox for OSX seems pretty identical to the Windows version, so I'll probably stick with that. Thanks.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have not chosen to update Azureus when it asks me to. Sounds like I shouldn't? I'm on Windows.
