Last windows update 2014. Author admits it is likely to be buggy and that the focus was more on Linux. This seems to be more of a torrent downloader than a browser. No msi installer seen.

I'm what can be considered a linux power user, as my job is being a linux sysadmin. Usually I deal with software that is not meant to be run/configured by end users, which are MUCH simpler to configure and much more well documented than this LeechCraft. It just present you with a screen with no hints to how to add plugins, and its website includes little to no documentation. Unless your distribution ships it with sane defaults, I really don't recomend Leechcraft, as powerful as it may seen.
