OfflineBay is an easy-to-use desktop program for Windows, which enables you to look up torrents on the Pirate Bay website. You can enter keywords, explore the list of results, and quickly locate the items that you want to download.

Initial configuration

Despite the fact that the name mentions the ability to search for torrents offline, you still need a stable Internet connection to be able to update the database. The installation process is not necessary since you can simply extract the downloaded archive and double-click the executable to open the main window. Please note that it is not possible to run searches right away because you need to update the dump file. The time depends on the size of the item as well as the quality of your network connection.

Operation

The list of results displays the name of the torrent, upload date, and size. You can open and copy magnet links, hash sums, and use Google to find out more about a specific file. The dump update is performed automatically when the utility connects to its internal server.

However, you also have the option to import dumps in offline mode, provided you have previously saved them from a specialized website. As far as the other features are concerned, you are able to view and update all trackers, pick interface themes, create shortcuts, and more. If you want to utilize other search engines, you may try FrostWire.
