BitComet Preferences - Appearance, Chatting

The BitTorrent Preferences Panel - Appearance

These options are self-explanatory, the only one in particular that I feel it needs to be mentioned is Avoid system entering suspend mode when a task is running.

BitComet has an advanced cache system that can even store in memory incoming data for seconds, not accessing the hard drive and causing the system to believe it can go in suspend mode. If checked, BitComet will not allow a computer to enter the suspend mode, which is good because on a desktop, it prevents the shut down of the drive and its restart. The only time you should uncheck it is if you have a laptop running on batteries.

The BitTorrent Preferences Panel - Chat

The chat feature is very rarely used, you will not lose anything if it remains unchecked.
