Vuze adds social features to BitTorrent video client
Probably the most significant change in Vuze 3.1 is support for searching multiple BitTorrent tracking web sites.

The wording is a bit tricky since it makes it sound a bit like you need to accept the terms and install the toolbar to continue the installation. But this is not the case.
