Torrent terror -need help
 

For the life of me I can't figure out the whole torrent thing. Seeing how that's become a favorable way to trade stuff, it's frustrating that I can't share what I have or obtain what's out there.

I've noticed a lot of posts citing some great shows, like the Shine Club show where Stevie performed "It's Only Love" with Sheryl Crow. That motivated me to try again (I attempted it a year or so ago and gave up). So I registered with Dime-a-Dozen. But after several hours of reading a lot of uncomprehensible technical babble, I'm still at a loss of how to proceed. eeh!!! ahh!!

Can anyone please share the secret? Perhaps provide a "Torrents For Dummies," a simple breakdown of what/how to do it? I'm ready to hang myself.:distress:

read this from throwndown.net and you may obtain some good tips :shrug:

also, there is a sticky in the chit chat forum that is very helpful on the topic.

The easiest way for bit torrent dummies these days is probably to download Opera (the browser). Then when you navigate to a torrent site with Opera you can simply click on the torrent link and it will work just like a regular download.

Don't know if Dimeadozen allows Opera as a bit torrent client, but there's lots of other free clients out there for everyone to use. UTorrent is a good one.

Go to the Chit Chat forum. There is an entire thread at the very top of the page that addresses this subject. :)

copy cat! :laugh:

Thanks one and all for the helpful advice! :wavey: Wish me luck as I venture into Torrent Town.
