µTorrent

Most of the features present in other BitTorrent clients are present in µTorrent, including bandwidth prioritization, scheduling, RSS auto-downloading and Mainline DHT (compatible with BitComet). Additionally, µTorrent supports the Protocol Encryption joint specification (compatible with Azureus 2.4.0.0 and above, BitComet 0.63 and above) and peer exchange.

µTorrent was written with efficiency in mind. Unlike many torrent clients, it does not hog valuable system resources - typically using less than 6MB of memory, allowing you to use the computer as if it weren't there at all. Additionally, the program itself is contained within a single executable less than 220 KB in size.

Various icon, toolbar graphic and status icon replacements are available, and creating your own is very simple. µTorrent also has support for localization, and with a language file present, will automatically switch to your system language. If your language isn't available, you can easily add your own, or edit other existing translations to improve them!

The developer puts in a lot of time working on features and making things more user-friendly. Releases only come out when they're ready, with no schedule pressures, so the few bugs that appear are quickly addressed and fixed.

nMacroRec records mouse and keyboard actions and saves as exe
nMacro allows you to record both keyboard and mouse actions and then save them as executables, which you can run to reproduce recorded actions on same system or on other systems. 

It works by hooking all messages sent by mouse actions and key actions. Then it save it and binds it to an exe so that when the executable is run it will play the recorded messages and so reproduce the mouse and keyboard actions. 

In order to start recording first you need to set where do you want the output to be saved and its name. This is the executable  
that will result from the recording. You can do this by writing the path in the Save Record As field or by clicking the browse button 
next to it. 

Once you've set the output path you can start recording or you can set a password that will be required everytime you run the output before playing recorded events. 

Also here you have an options to disable all keyboard input (except for CTRL+ALT+DEL that will stop play) during the playing of the recorded events from the output.The password and this last option are both optional.

To begin recording all you have to do is press the red Start Recording button after you've set the output path and name. To stop recording just press CTRL+BREAK or click on the applications tray icon.

NOTICE: In order to reproduce recorded actions on other computer you must make sure it has the same screen resolution as the system the actions were recorded on, in order for the mouse actions be reproduce exactly. If you're not sure of this detail or of the exact alignement of the other systems icons you can record only keyboard events.

Also please take into consideration loading times wich may be different each time you play recorded events.
