Bittorent? Please educate me!

[luvya]

I've got the bittorent software installed, but thus far, I have not been able to download anything off from it successfully. Am I doing something wrong here? Do I need another software just so the whole thing will work? Oh, btw, if possible...direct me to some sites where they have good bittorent downloads available

I've had some luck with suprnova, but the site has been having problems lately.

if you're going to use bittorrent be sure you have PeerGuardian installed, updated, & running at all times

Elaborate?

Edit: And I do use Peer Guardian most of the time~

Why lock, it is no worse then Kazza, limewire, etc...


But the only good one I have found is Supernova.org , all others I have found have next to nothing
Just make sure you SEED (i.e. Share) or you will be banned and other will cut you off.

yes I hate it when I've downloaded 3999 MB of a 4000 MB file and then everyone closes their connection.

Bittorent must be OK now, no lock.
