I know, hark at me, hardly ever on the forum these days then has the cheek to appear only to ask a question... :oops:

Still, I would be very grateful if any apple users could recommend a mac based medium for downloading torrents. It's all pc at my place but a mac user on another forum asked if I could help... There I go again, on other forums more than I'm here, what am I like? :wink:

That's the one I use too! Mind you, only very, very rarely, got fed up with torrents, so that's why I couldn't quite remember :lol:
