Default So can i.......

close Bit Torrent down while it's downloading a file and continue it later on in the day without having to restart the download? other people use this computer and the file i'm downloading is nearly a gig in size so yeh it'll be awhile before it's finished.... I've never used this before because im not a very patient person. h:

do you leave it in the taskbar only?

they probably close it because it is slowing everything down

Don't use the crappy Bittorrent client. You will have to restart it if you close it. Use Azureus. Best client I've come across. Nice features, easy to use.
