BitTornado

BitTornado was developed by John Hoffman, who also created its predecessor, Shad0w's Experimental Client.

It is programmed using Python, for platform independence. Due to this, it can be used server-side on servers which support python applications, without having root access. Torrentflux is a popular PHP front-end for BitTornado, but because of its nature being inherently resource-intense, most shared web hosts block such scripts.

BitTornado developer John Hoffman decided to ban BitComet users from accessing his client as he claims it exploits super-seeds.The BitTorrent client ABC was a fork of BitTornado.
