That's easy for you to say.
(Just kidding)
I was a member of Dimeadozen and with great anticipation attempted the torrent thing. I had bit-tornado and two other programs (they are still on my computer at home...something called flac ?), but could never figure it out.
If I wanted to download something, I had to have the correct "ratio thing" happening, and when I tried to upload, to get my ratio up there, I still wasn't doing something right.
I subscribed to the yahoo user-question/answer thing and after reading it for 9 months, I found out that with inactivity, I was no longer registered with Dime.
Like I said..."It's Klingon to me." and I need a tutor to come out to the trailer where me and the other special kids take our classes...
I don't know if this answered your curiosity question...and I suppose if I had someone show me how, I would be more competent, until then, like Blanche DuBois, I will have to "rely on the kindness of strangers."
