I also need some information on using Bittorent on MAC PC. What are more recommended softwares available for MAC.

All protocols peer-to-peer networks are present on Mac applications if not many are actually there. On the PC, with the BitTorrent protocol, customers are the most popular Torrent, Azureus Vuze. Never mind, you stay in the standard, if that is your choice! Both programs are available for Mac, Azureus Vuze is present on all platforms and Mac Torrent although still in beta is functional.

You have a diesel and you have a better slow download and complete the reverse. On the PC you use the free client eMule or that other equivalent close under GNU GPL, aMule. On a Mac, you will not lose your habits with Pidgin 2.2.3, which is multi-platform and available from Mac OS X 10.4.

Gnutella clients are very abundant and very admired with Mac. Examples include Limewire, Cabos, Purchase 2 or FrostWire. Like PC, the normal functions are supported (UPnP cryptographic hash SHA-1, iTunes integration, firewall to firewall transfers, UDP Host Cache for faster connections.

The good old FTP clients are still there and will still for long! In this category, Filezilla on the PC or Linux is unbeatable. On a Mac, you have to just take the lead in client version. Its advantages are no longer present with drag and drop, support for SSL and SSH, the pause / resume interrupted downloads ... You can also try their luck with Cyberduck graphically very successful, CuteFTP Pro or Transmit, a classic.
