I have free downloads between 2am and 10am, and want to have something which will open my torrent client and start downloading at 2am and close at 10am, automatically.

Any such programs out there? I don't even what they'll be called.

Thanks.

download utorrent, its a tiny 150 kb exe (no installation required or installation version which is 570 kbs), which is a ultra fast, clean streamlined and easy to use bit torrent client. It has a crap load of functions, e.g built in torrent site search (like search bar in fire fox).

it also has a scheduler, which i use for my off-peak download session, you can completely stop downloads at certain times of the day or just use a limited speed.
For more info see http://www.utorrent.com/, .

Shareaza provides bandwidth allocation as a function of time & day. You can set it to 0% usage when you don't have "Free Downloads" then set it to 100% otherwise.
