SKIRMISHER

All dedicated, freedom-loving bittorrent downloaders must avoid using these three bad monkeys. Here’s why.

Installing one of these clients will result in a hijacked browser and numerous popups. Most experienced BitTorrent users probably wont fall for these clients, and ignore catchy phrases like, “We use unique technology to increase the download speed of your torrents”.

However, people who are new to BitTorrent might accidentally download one of these clients, especially when sites like Torrentspy.com start to integrate ads for these clients (torrent101 in this case) into their design.

Luckily most BitTorrent site admins refuse to advertise these clients. The Pirate Bay said that they will ban these clients two weeks ago, mininova successfully banned these malicious clients, and BTjunkie wont let them advertise on their site either.

We all hate downtime in our daily free downloads of otherwise expensive software and vivid porn, so it’s a good thing the devoted folks at Torrentfreak forego sleep guarding the gates so that the rest of us can take it easy and have a nice, happy life enjoying for free the fruits of other people’s hard labor.
