i use utorrent. basicly you download the program and use it like kazza or morphious. what you do is type in the name of what your looking for and it opens up the webpage that you have selected and serches for the file you want. if one doent have the file you have about 6 websites that are defalt websites to choose from.
once you have either one of utorrent or bittorrent, you can serch the beb for torrent sites and just look for the file you want. their are meny torrent sites not listed. some ask for you to sign up and some you dont have to sign up.i dont think theirs any need to sign up for a torrent site. you wont have to serch to hard to find what you want.

well, what about the link I gave you? It seems to have pretty much everything you need to know. And I found it by searching google..

And personally, if I were you.. since your new at it, I'd go with Bitcomet. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] utorrent [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] is technically better, but you need to know more about setting and optimizing, so it may not be the best for the newbie.

client wise:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] is the best by far
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] is a solid 2nd place though.

bitcomet is hogging up resources on torrents, its gonna get banned VERY soon from the top places.. its a piece of shit that steals bandwidth to attempt and increase its speeds, and fucks it up for everyone else

So is BitLord, fuck both of those programs from the same company. Everyone in the torrent community is pissed off at what theyre trying to do. Its nothing but negative to the entire system. The original creator of the torrent code is going to find a fix for them within a month and then they will wallow in inferiority.

The best PUBLIC sites are:

1) Isohunt.com
2) Torrentspy.com
3) Demonoid.com

The best PRIVATE sites are:

1) oink.me.uk
2) Torrentleech.com

the only thing I don't like about isohunt is the lack of comments from users on each download. It makes a big difference in my decision on downloading a file. Torrentspy and Demonoid both rock though. It's weird though.. within a few days of me registering at demonoid (like a month ago) it seems to have turned into a private registration site now. You can download without an account, but they severely limit downloads to non registered users. And the only way to register is with an invite. I barely made it lol.
