De BitTorrent-client BitComet heeft ondersteuning voor dht, het downloaden van torrents zonder tracker en het alvast kunnen bekijken van een deel van een film als die nog niet volledig gedownload is. Ook is het mogelijk om zelf een torrent aan te maken en te seeden. Daarnaast kunnen bepaalde ip-adressen worden geweerd en kan er met andere BitComet-gebruikers worden gechat.
