Handpicked Software

The Azureus Dashboard Widget provides a compact, friendly interface for monitoring and managing BitTorrent downloads. It’s especially useful for remote torrent management — for instance, if you use a machine other than your main workstation for BitTorrent downloads — but works just as well for controlling Azureus on your local machine.

Instructions for installation can be found at the widget’s homepage.

• FIXED When there are no torrents, the headers “Torrent Name” and “Progress” will not appear.
• FIXED The X that closes the widget is now correctly positioned over the top left corner.
• CHANGED The widget’s icon no longer has a gradient background.
