How to Download Torrents

Well, I wasn't planning to make a Tutorial but Travas forgot how to download Torrents so here I am.... I will explain First of all, you need to know what OS(Operating System) you have before downloading Torrents. For those who don't know what a torrent is, it is a protocol for peer-to-peer file transfer. Because a client can upload and download the file at the same time, file transfers often go faster than from a standard web server, and it's easier to transfer large files. Linux distributions are often done in this protocol, as well as a lot of pirated software (illegal!).

What you need to start downloading torrents:

Recommended For Windows, MAC, and Linux:


BitTorrent


Or...

µTorrent


After you have the Program on your Operating System, you will want to download a Torrent right? Usually you'd download these to get Audio, Video, Applications, Games, and more Illegally because it is the fastest and most efficient way. A recommended site to download these is http://thepiratebay.org there are many out there but that one is the safest that I know of. Now, lets begin. Lets say you wanted to download Photoshop. You would type that in the search bar and check 'Applications' then click Enter. You will then see a big list of TORRENTS and on the left you will see Seeders(SE) and Leechers(LE). Seeders are people who have already downloaded the file and are uploading them. The more Seeders, the faster the download will go. Leechers are people who are sharing what they have and are downloading what you have.

So now you know you want a Torrent with the most Seeders. So click on (SE) which will arrange all the Torrents and show which one has the most Seeders. Just because it has the most Seeders, DOES NOT MEAN IT IS SAFE. You will then click on the Torrent with the most Seeders and on the Page, look at the description, read it, then look at the comments. If you see a lot of Negative Comments about the torrent, DON'T DOWNLOAD IT. After this, click on (Magnet Link) then a Pop-Up will appear, click Okay. Then your Torrent Client should start up and begin the download. You're pretty much done after this, when it's done, simply click on it to open it then you should know how to install your Program. This is just a tutorial on how to download Torrents which is pretty easy right??? Maybe then I will make one about Cracks and Patches which are very important to downloading an Illegal Program (if you want me to make a tutorial about this please tell me).

I use Vuze to download torrents, mainly for music and videos for my iPod.

Oh yes Vuze is really good for Audio/Video, I used to use Limewire but now it's dead.
