    Here is the dl link: http://www.download.com/uTorrent/3000-2196_4-10598695.html?tag=lst-0-1

    It may be confusing at first, but there are some help tutorials on the web. You need to go to a website like: http://www.torrentz.com/ And find what you want. Dl that first then open uTorrent and go to file, open <Name of thing you dl from torrentz> If anything confuses you pm me.

    Also make sure it's a working torrent before you dl it. Check comments from other users to see if it worked for them.

    Azures, shareaza, bitlord for the torrents
    morpheus, bearshare, limewire for the p2p

    it depends on preference.

    just be sure you know what your doing and you some virus protection and firewall protection up.

    also if you don't want to do the p2p or torrent thing then check out some rapidshare links. They help alot when you don't feel like getting a virus/spyware. just change your ip or use a proxy when you need to download multiple files

    Kazaa is the WORST P2P program! dont use it, its full of viruses and malware, the last time i used it i formated my pc cuz all the viruses, and its impossible to uninstall x.x

    Very fast download and upload rate btw

    I use Limewire PRO for filesharing, and for regular downloads, I use Flashget paired with the FlashGot Firefox extension. Works out really well.

    For me, I guess the best downloading utility is Limewire and other various P2P softwares. Gotta watch out for viruses and spyware. I had to reformat my comp last time :evil:
