How does it search demonoid without logging in? (Or does it log in?)

isohunt.com is one i was looking for too.. its the only good place to get dr who. Only 82 days to the series 3 christmas invasion :)

Will be great to see http://www.bitdig.com site there :)

Nice, but theres a major flaw IMO:-

It opens up your browser to show you results, why not just show them in the widget? You can use a firefox extension to more quickly search for torrents from your browser.

Also not having ISOhunt is a major blow to the amount of results you’ll get from a search.

Nice for a 1.0 release though.

Isohunt.com Please!!!

just use http://www.scrapetorrent.com that combines a bunch of those sites

Why would I want to open the dashboard, type in my query, then leave the dashboard just to have my web browser open? Done right, I would use it in my dashboard. Just think more like xTorrent.

yeah, the dashboard to brower thing is a bit sucky.. maybe show links in dashboard with seeders and leechers…

incidentally, i’d LOVE to see boxtorrents.com on there, but you need an account to access the torrents, so maybe read the user/pass from a cookie or something…

Just an idea ;)

Why would someone want this to be a dashboard app? You like it to be configurable, to display a list of results, and to be able to fine tune the results afterwards. Don’t know about OS X but these apps exist for XP and you need more UI than dashboard provides to make it work. Even if it works entirely in dashboard (which it doesn’t) you’ll switch to another app to download to torrent. Stupid IMO.

isohunt.com bt-chat.com scrapetorrent.com torrentz.com

This is retarded. You open up the widget, type in your search, and it opens up 25 tabs in your web browser? What is the point of that?

13 Oct 10, 2006 at 20:42 by zerodefect

torrentz.com doesn’t seem to work with the widget.

I’m looking for all the torrent sites I can find to add it to http://multiz.com/downloads.php .

If anyone has more suggestions, thanks.

When I try to download the program, and open the link, it says that the page ‘cannot be found’. So how else can I find this program/software and download it?

Thanks,
Shamma.
