Light weight. Open Source. Free.
That’s the slogan of Transmission, our favorite Bit Torrent client. It certainly holds true, this strong program is feature rich and doesn’t include any thing extra. This highly functional program runs nativly on five operating systems, and boasts a well designed menu.
For our review we tested the 0.78 release (0.9o just released) for Mac OSX. After downloading and installing, we were up with no problems at all. With Transmission running, locate a torrent from the numerous torrent sites out there. Download the torrent to your desk top, and then drag and drop right into Transmission. The status bar will begin to turn green as your progress occurs and you’ll have your file in no time.
No adware, Spyware, or Malware.
