Default Torrent Help-NoOb

Anyone have a little walkthrough or something for a guy trying to set up torrents for the first time? Virus protection, good torrent sites, instructions on how to download and unzip the files, etc?

You mean just downloading torrents?


I use BitTorrent and just google the torrents I'm looking for...

Some torrent software:

utorrent
bittorrent
flashGet (the one I use)
bitcomet
Azureus

Make your choice... To find torrent you can go on zoozle.net or only search in google!

You cant open a .torrent file without software. It's like trying to open a .zip in windows media player, it doesnt work

jesus h christ.

go to torrentz.com and look for it. you download a lil file called a torrent, and you open it up with your client. use any program you want. i use utorrent.

most times you dont have to unzip it since using torrents you just download the file or even the folder.

jesus was it that hard?
