Azureus is a Java BitTorrent , I2P and Tor (anonymous network) client. It currently supports Mac OS X, Windows, Linux and Unix. Azureus allows the user to download multiple files in a single GUI. The program also allows detailed options, information and configuration. While downloading a torrent, you can see:

• which files you've downloaded
• what percentage of each file and piece you still need, the piece number and availability
• who you are downloading from, their download and upload speeds, their IP, their port, their client and more options if you are Super-Seeding
• download and upload speed, time remaining, file and tracker information.

Azureus allows users to specify maximum upload and download speeds and is configurable like many other clients. Azureus also allows users to open some files that have been compleated before the entire torrent from within the program. Azureus functionality can be expanded via various plugins, one of the more popular being Country Locator.

The Blue Poison Dart Frog (Dendrobates azureus) is shown on the Azureus webpage, as well as within the program's start-up splash screen, no doubt lending its name to the project.
