Everyone keeps mentioning it, is it similar to a p2p? If so why does everyone keep mentioning "seeds", I'm assuming its not like a search and then click to dl? Just got a new comp and trying to learn all the new stuff out there

 

Bit torrent is P2P tool. Seeders are those who have completed the download and are now uploading the content. You need at least one seed to complete the download. You can search, click, and download. The sites I use are mininova.org and torrentspy.com. Before you can download torrent files you need a client program. I would recommand Azureus for that.

ok so I go to torrentspy on my broswer, I go to latest seeds and it says download when I see a seed(program) I like? If I d/l the Azureus program would I still need to d/l that seed at torrent spy.on my browser?

 

i go to http://www.torrents.to to browse multiple torrent sites

 

Bit Comet is what I Use

 

That's right. For torrentspy click on the 'Download Torrent' button and a msg box will appear. Select 'open with' option, browse for Azureus (if it's not there already) and you should be set.

The torrent file is not the actual file. The torrent file will connect you with peers who are downloading and uploading the file.
