Don't bother - use one of the free Torrent clients instead.

For any developers reading this,, for me, the killer feature that Xtorrent offered (before it stopped working for me under Lion) was built-in, easy torrent search. If anyone knows of a torrent client that does this, pls let me know.

I contacted him and he responded once in 1 year,he doesn't even answer to my e-mails,he is a scammer....

1. is uTorrent (it's stable, fast, free and easy to use for everyone) -
2. Transmission (it's stable, fast, free and easy to use for everyone)
Years ago I've tested xTorrent for some weeks. It's not faster than other free products, rather more slowly, so my impression.
I was interested in this app later and willing to pay for. But I don't have paypal, so I asked him (via email) for other payment methods. NO reply. Try it again. NO reply. Tried not again, NO thank you.
The support is very much in need of improvement. Save your money.

Comparing the screenshots from Transmission and xTorrent, it certainly looks like the latter IS cluttered.
This thing may have been the bees knees back in 2007, but it's never evolved much (read: at all) since then. Not to mention this client is (and always will be) banned on every single private tracker on this planet. So you know, have fun downloading those Fedora updates...
Could this have something to do with the fact that I live and work in China and therefore Xtorrent might be 'controlled' or 'blocked' by chinese watchdog?
anyone else using Xtorrent Pro while in China? also experiencing similar problems?
hope someone can help me out cause it really sucks that I can't download anything

I tried to display each one in a tab... and all my search engines are working fine, I mean I can see in each tab the webpage corresponding to the search engine and results corresponding to my search(es). But it's a pain in the ass to have to click on each tab... Xtorrent is supposed to group result in 1 view !
I'm a Pro user of it (yes, I paid for it a long time ago in a galaxy far far away on the new Mac planet). Does anyone else have the same problem as me (limited number of results/websites) ? Does anyone has a solution ?
Thanks a lot
P.S : I understand some would not like Xtorrent and/or his developer for the concept behind it (take an opensource program, change the color and the name and ask for money) but I really like the search feature integrated in Xtorrent : 1 search field, 1 view, choices of results :-) ... when it works.
I'd appreciate any feedback as I tried the develper, but haven't heard back from him.
Thanks in advance!

One more thing: Xtorrent is the worst torrent client out there... Since you have just started using it, I would advise you to change to a better client, like Vuze, uTorrent or Transmission...

Until 2 days ago, I can't find anything anymore, the search keeps beeing empty.
What is happening ?
Is it due to the fact that Xtorrent is not being updated anymore ?

Now I have uninstalled Speed Download. (10/23/2007, Version: 1.1v50)

Why don't we try to figure out why some of you are having problems with stability.
1) Are you running OS 10.4.10?
2) Are you running any hacks?
3) What do you have in your Login Items?
4) Have you tried running Xtorrent under another user?
5) What other apps are you running at the same time as Xtorrent?
+4
2) No
3) Just a couple of standard items that every other piece of software can get along with.
4) No
5) Non
The crashes, the hangs on quitting, the unability to complete downloads that are already complete (a bug in v44) are all real bugs in Xtorrent, not because of a buggy environment.
The complete lack of support to paying customers (zero response from developer, help, documentation etc) are real problems as well.
(Besides that Xtorrent is far to quick on delete real files, it's very easy to delete by mistake when all you want is to remove a torrent from a list.)

I keep my copy running all day, all night, nearly every day, and I never have these problems. So Xtorrent alone can't be the reason.
I would think your next step is to create a new user, install Xtorrent under it, then try running it there and see if your problems continue.
Let us know!
Oh, almost forgot, make sure you have no font issues. Corrupt fonts cause crashes constantly and it's a real pain in the ass. I use Linotype FontExplorer (free and awesome) to wrangle my font collection and clean the font caches occasionally. Also, make sure your system fonts folder only contains fonts installed by the Mac OS. Font Explorer has a function that takes care of that as well.
Then I would execute the automation item with Onyx (also free and awesome) which will run daily, weekly and monthly maintenance scripts, clean caches, etc.

However, there has got to be something going on here because the number of complaints about crashing has recently grown.
I'm convinced there's some conflict between Xtorrent and a mystery application on these users' Macs. Maybe we're not having any problems because we're not running 1 tiny little app they happen to be running.
It would just be cool to figure this out, that's all.
