ok, i tried using BitComet to download Hitman and it took 8 hours to download 37mb cause im on dail up, but on limewire i downloaded 51mb in half that time. so was BitComet just a bad client? are better BT clients or limewire type apps out there?

This is answered every day.It's a prefference thing.I pick utorrent for it's stability, reliability,Speeds,and easy to use interface
Others may choose azereus for it's many options and tweeking capabilities.It's also a good client for advanced users.

Bitcomet is ok but not the best in my opinion.

So what's best for you? I would say utorrent.It's sad to hear your on dial up but hey at least you have internet,many don't.Also be sure to read dvdback23's excellent guide for increased speeds!

Here is the bitcomet guide

Never mind the client as long as it is not BitLord or BitComet.
Your on dial up so you will experience slow speeds.
Your download speed in BitTorrent, or any other P2P (Peer-2-Peer) application for that matter, relies on the upload speed of others - so do not assume that because you get xxKB/s when downloading from web sites that you will always get xxKB/s with BitComet. Slow download speeds are almost always because the upload bandwidth required to provide you with fast downloads just isn't there... so there is no way to magically speed it up, other than going out and buying everyone who you're downloading from (seeds/peers) a faster internet connection.
