Hi Andrew I am also a user of Vuze but I've now got fed-up with it. I would look at uTorrent which is apparently much better and supports scheduling. I'd be interested to see how you go. My housemate and I try and download in the off-peak period but it gets counted in our peak period?? Cheers

I have set my Mac to wake at 2am and sleep at 12pm. If I leave Vuze open when I go to bed it should restart when the computer wakes up at 2am. I'll see how it goes. I just can't stay up until 2am. I'm not as young as I used to be. Andrew On 02/05/2009, at 6:00 PM, David Moyle wrote: Hi
