QUOTE(illdevilinc @ Jun 22 2006, 08:18 PM) 4.) Do NOT start many downloads as this may lock up your computer AND may set off Vista Security and Vista will clos the program automaticly. This error ocurred to me. Is there any way to fix it? Thank you.

Nearly everything locks up on Vista. That is nothing new. It is quite expected. Fortunately VIsta responds better to hung programs. Not needing to be restarted eerytime unike xp. But it is very demanding. You definitely require a huge memory and faster processors. Start up and shutdown times are poor than XP. and installing applications only slows them more. As for azureus , it takes a lot of memory. Switching to bitlord may help. It is lightweight and takes upless memory.

Yeah that is because they have moved and rewrite many parts of source code and they have moved most of those things which usually stucked XP to reboot.

Like graphical user interface is no more in kernel of the Vista then all explorer has been removed from kernel and it is no longer integrated into system and it has been differencing from the graphical user interface making it more easy to use and upgrade because if you are copying some file and it fails in XP usually you had to rerun your system now system just restarts explorer and you are good to go.

Everyone remember that you couldn't uninstall internet explorer from the system well that was because it was integrated and that is why so many security loopholes occured now it is all different story with vista. I was on one Microsoft presentation and MVP(Microsoft Virtual Programmer) said that they are using modular design so in fact Vista is build up from many moduls. And not like XP from one huge stone. That is why vista is easier to upgrade and to find errors because, for last two security loops which were found in vista I read they only needed like 12 hours to correct it and that is nothing if you compare with several months with XP.

What are you talking about dude???

Azureus works without a problem in Windows Vista. I'm using it right now (version 2.5.0.4). I didn't even install/run using the compatibility mode. I simply installed it the way I installed it in XP and it worked without a glitch.

Maybe you guys need to update your Java Runtime Environment to latest version.

I used to hava azureus because it's a great sofware but it takes a LOT of memory and slow down my PC so much so I decided to use ARES is a good p2p softwares and it can manages torrents. Id doesn't have all the features of Azureus (for example you cannot choose which file download and which don't) but you can use not only for torrents but for other p2p stuff.

Opinion/Suggestion *:Could someone tell me if Vista and Firefox work well? again I been reading many comets on the internet about bugs and errors but those comments are 6 months old. Do you think is a good idea to install Firefox in Vista?(as today September 2007) by the way I'm a regular computer user I have good knowledge about computers but I'm not a expert. what I'm trying to say I can fix regular errors but I'm not a programmer and some of the hint I found here are about my skills... thanks in advance

I love Azerus and have been without it since gewtting VISTA.
VISTA is a good system. I changed its functions to XP which you can do....and found I love VISTA far more. I just dislike hat very little software works on it. I can'are get the correct JAVA to work with Azureus. So I am using bittoorent. I can only use non java p2p programs. Very frustrating. And JRE 1.6 for Vista always has a runtime error when I try and install.

Azureus Vuze
Azureus With Vista

I recently installed Azureus Vuze on my pc with Vista and am having problems with my NAT/Firewall Test. It reads "NAT Error - Connect attempt to xx.Xxx.Xxx.Xxx:xxxx0 (your computer) timed out after 20 seconds.

This means your port is probably closed." I had a similar problem with azureus and windows xp, but I was able to open a TCP for my internet firewall and virus software and allow Azureus to run regularly with a green light(tracker).

Other than internet service firewall I.E. At&t, verizon, virus software firewalls are there any other things I can do to make my tracker status better?

Azureus With Vista

Replying to -[Nero]-
Vista and most p2p networks work just fine, however, as of several months ago, when I last updated Azureus, It did not work with vista. I was wondering if this was a temporary problem, or if it was going to be a permanent issue. The issue was with the file save location. Every time I loaded the software, It would try do download to C:/"username"/Documents and Settings/Downloads, which did not exist, and the software could not create the directory. I could not switch the file directory to any other location, as it would lose anything I downloaded, and would switch back on the next startup. I switched to BitLord, which has limited functionality when it comes to choosing what files to download, and not being able to open parts of a file without the entire file being downloaded.
