Install Azureus on ubuntu

Azureus is a BitTorrent client written in Java. The BitTorrent protocol is a new way of exchanging or distributing data over the internet. Downloading also means uploading, and the amounts of each are linked, to ensure fairness and rapidity in the spread of the file at hand.

Azureus comes with Vuze, a new GUI for the traditional Azureus application. From Vuze, you have five views; Dashboard, OnVuze, Library, Publish and Advanced.

* Dashboard - This splits your view into 3 panels: Currently Downloading, Recently Downloaded and available Downloads.
* OnVuze - This gives you a list of channels available, then each channel gives you available downloads.
* Library - Displays a list of Downloads on the right hand side and information on the selected download on the left.
* Publish - Takes you to publishing wizard to add your own content to the Vuze community. Note: You must register with Vuze for this.
* Advanced - This takes you to the Azureus you know and love.

Although closely linked and developed by many of the same people, Vuze and Azureus are separate projects.
