BitLord was first released in December 2004, as BitLord 0.56, based on and under license from BitComet. From version 1.2 until 2.3.2, BitLord was based on Deluge, but has added several features of its own since then.

Upon download, BitLord will download many other programs and files, such as MyPc Backup and RegClean Pro. It might also change your default search engine to http://search.conduit.com/.[3] They are both often cited as adware and browser hijackers.[4][5]
