Be the first to recommend a similar software title.
I own a registered copy of Pitbull pro for a few months now, and have been using it on a daily basis for my client (ever since X started giving the stupid error with hotline), i happen to also run a server, and Pitbull pro helps a lot on the admin side, it supports a huge number of features like server monotoring, preventing message bots, kick double loggin, etc, etc. On the agressive side it can be disabled (turn of automatic recovery) and most of times i do recomend my users to do so. On the uploads side it allows you to control bandwith (nice going). Conclusion for me is by far the best hotline client i've worked with… its up to you to make a good usage of it. Counterpart the client is a bit heavy on processor usage wich it can be set to more speed or less (lower and slower heeh) i believe its the almost perfect client except for the slowness in gui and processor usage. I would love to see hotline-tools.com to develope some server version, coz they've excellent products

This steaming pile is roundly reviled by all Hotline server owners. As its name suggests, it is an overly-aggressive app that is used by the nastiest of Hotline users. I personally know dozens of Hotline server administrators and every one of them bans Pitbull users from their servers. USE ANY OTHER Hotline client, NOT this one.

Great piece of software. This is better than the Hotline client, it's interface is much friendlier and it's easy to learn how to use. Simply download this, configure your browser to handle hotline links, head to tracker-tracker.com, and you're all set to find and download almost anything your heart desires.
