If you right click the torrent in the list, you should be able to "show folder" or something like that. Or are you just downloading the .torrent file and expecting that to be the music? If so, it might pay you to read the article above about how it all works. Once the torrent has downloaded using uTorrent, you should have a series of MP3 files in a folder somewhere.

Sometimes the torrents are not available. Did you choose an "active" torrent? One with seeders and leechers? Also, if you use a router, check out www.portforword.com as you might need to make some tweaks there. Thirdly, uTorrent has a "test connection" section somewhere. Run this and it will tell you if it has any issues! Good luck Try to leave it a little while.

I love utorrent because it seemed like the only client that was up and running on my computer. I wrote a review about it a few days back, and loved the speeds that I got from it. ofcourse, the closed-source Utorrent has a lot of controversies over the year, with the maker of utorrent developing a program for an anti-piracy company and what-not. :-) nothing that I really care about but still...

But it's far slower than uTorrent, which loads up instantly on my box, and is also a great torrent program.. Sure, there are some advanced features that perhaps only Azureus will give, and you can use it on any client as well.. But as long as your primary interest is in the up/downloading of the torrent files, uTorrent supplies all that you need for that, with a well designed interface, and a remarkably small footprint. I've yet to think of anything more that I need for my own use. :) Azureus is a great product, sure.

And yes it is a much better and more "mature" product with the ability to include plugins and the like. However - its that Java bit I hate. Check out <a href="http://gomeler.com/2006/04/23/an-introduction-to-bittorrent-clients/" rel="nofollow">this article here</a> which compares Azureus and uTorrent. Basically, the writer finds that Azureus is a memory hungry horse whereas uTorrent is as light as a feather... I have used Azureus.
