    You must first download a BitTorrent Client such as utorrent

    http://www.utorrent.com/

    this is what manages downloads/uploads from torrent sites

    Then, sometimes, also an unzip program.

    i've tried to figure it out multiple times. i am beginning to suspect it's a hoax and nobody knows how to actually do this, but they pretend they're using it so they don't look foolish ;)
    and like that... he's gone.

    download something like utorrent
    get on a site such as demonoid or what.cd etc.
    find shit you want, queue it up

    and remember to seed

    You need to download a bit torrent software like someone posted above utorrent, or bittorrent, and there are a few others. Go to a website that has torrents and once you click on the torrent it will show you the contents. Once you click ok it will download the files on your default bittoreNnt software you choose such as utorrent.

    Download speed depends on your internet speed and how many people are downloading (leechers), and how many people are seeding (people who have downloaded the file and are still sharing there connection).

    Also if you have a higher upload speed limit your download should finish faster most times since the more you share the more you get. It's alot easier then the way I'm wording it. Bittorrent program, find a file you want open it and then it will automatically download and show up on the program.

    The only thing that can be complicated is port forwarding if your connections are slow when downloading using torrent clients. But we will make that next week's lesson in Bit Torrent 101.
