What's New in Azureus 2.0.7.0: Version History of Azureus 2.0.7.0
Changes:
- Azureus now identifies itself via User-Agent in tracker http communications
- Less flickering, on all platforms (tested on both windows and linux+GTK)

- Removed multi-port listening, as shared single port is far superior
- More reliable .config and .torrent file writing
- Tracker scraper now honors a 'flags: min_request_interval' response
- Plugins can be initialised from plugin.properties freestanding (not just in .jar file)
Corrected bugs:
- Problem with tracker not responding with Connection: close causing SSL session maintainance with HttpsURLConnection to stuff up and fail clients with
ecv fail

- System tray icon re-shown after explorer.exe crash (again)
- Fix for potential memory leaks
- Fix for stalled piece writing

- Fix for Fast Resume with Chinese torrents: Bug #878015
- Fix for excess thread creation when tracker does not support single-infohash scrapes
- Fix for hash checking 0-byte files: Bug #853126
- Fix for opening files via Files tab when using MoveOnComplete: Bugs #860822, #878795
- Fix for 100% cpu usage after network disconnect/reconnect: Bugs #873957, #879498
- Fix for downloaded blocks not being written to disk, due to write-thread stall under high load
- Fix for various non-unicode torrent encoding issues regarding resume data
New Features:
- Under Linux + GTK, added an option to setup a vertical offset to re-align graphics
- SSL tracker client now gives option to import certificate rather than manually doing so via keytool
- Start All Downloads option on tray icon

The shared resources will automatically have their torrents recalculated if they change (over Azureus restart)
- Tracker allows number of peers returned to be limited
- Experimental UDP tracker protocol (see Config->Tracker->Extensions). Azureus client/tracker supports this, as does the XBT tracker (http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbtt/)

- Tracker support for multiple pages
- Tracker pages skinable by placing pages in %azhome%/web
- Major extensions to plugin interfaces
- Simple Swing based remote admin interface (over SSL+password auth) - email parg@users.sourceforge.net for details

- Quick Change of up speed by right-clicking on the up speed indicator
About: Azureus is a Java based BitTorrent client, with support for I2P and Tor anonymous communication protocols. It currently supports Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Unix. Azureus was started at Sourceforge.net mostly to experiment with the Standard Widget Toolkit from Eclipse, in June 2003. It is possibly the most popular of all BitTorrent clients.
Azureus allows the user to download multiple files in a single graphical user interface (GUI). The program also features detailed statistics and a large number of user-configurable settings. While downloading a torrent, the user can view many different statistics.
Azureus Features:
- Multiple torrent downloads
- Upload and download speed limiting, both globally and per torrent
- Advanced seeding rules
- Adjustable disk cache
- Only uses one port for all the torrents
- UPnP sets the forward on your router
- Can use a proxy, for both tracker and peer communications
- Fast resume
- Can set a default download dir and move completed files
- Can import torrents automatically from a set dir
- Highly customizable interface
- IRC plugin included for quick help
- Embedded tracker, host your own torrents, automate your shares (periodic scanning of a dir)...
- Distributed Hash Table: host on it a completely decentralised torrent and/or benefit from it when the tracker is offline.
