Free Torrent Download simplifies the peer-to-peer downloading process. It's a very basic program, but that's why it's so effective. Instead of including a slew of advanced features that many users don't want, this program has only the basics. There are enough options to control how the process occurs and how it affects your computer and bandwidth without being overbearing.

The program works by downloading bits and pieces of a larger file from multiple users. Also known as leeching, this process is very fast and doesn't put a strain on any party. Those downloading are able to complete their file faster while the multiple users they're taking from aren't experiencing a strain on their bandwidth. Once the download is complete, users can then contribute bits and pieces of their file for others to download, which is also known as seeding.

Simplicity is key with Free Torrent Download. Users can set it to run in the background and control various aspects to perfect the process. While it's running, the program displays the file name, size, completion level, upload speeds, download speeds, and connection strength. It also displays the number of seeders and leechers of the particular file. This information is displayed effectively in one row to minimize screen space. Users can also configure proxies, limits, and much more. Multiple files can be downloaded while still providing enough usable bandwidth.
