Thanks, but I only tried mldonkey as an alternative while BitTornado was
not working correctly. I only use BitTorrent for Fedora isos and the
occasional Enterprise episode when I miss it on TV. but I truly have no
interest in most of the p2p networks. I don't even have an mp3/ogg music
collection. I listen on the radio if I listen at all. There hasn't been
much music made in the last several decades, although they have made a
lot of noise, and a lot of money. :)

Well, I've been off topic this whole thread. Time for me to shut up.
