How to download files with a torrent?

I'm so curious about how to download movies from internet. I couldn't use my DVD rental card anymore because the the place where we used to rent DVD's moved far from our place. Everytime I wanted to watch new movies, I'll ask my hubby to download movies for me. He told me one day that he'll teach me how to download torrents. What are torrents anyway?

Torrent is a small file (around few kilobytes) with the suffix .torrent, which contains all the information needed to download a file the torrent was made for. That means it contains file names, their sizes, where to download from and so on. You can get torrents for almost anything on lots of web sites and torrent search engine. Torrent is the most popular way of downloading large files, including movies and games. Okay, it seems more clearer to me.

I asked my hubby how to download movies with a torrent. Here's what I learned:

1. Find a torrent program that will suit your needs. In our case, we used. Azureus, now called Vuze.

2. Follow the instructions on downloading and installing your chosen client.

3. Go to a torrent site and search for a file you want to download. The QueenTorrent.com is one of the popular sites that I recently found.

4. Once you have found the desired file on the torrent site, click the "Download This Torrent" (or whatever the word they used that means the same). Usually, the web browser's file download manager will instruct you on what to do with this file. You want to open the file with your torrent program. Like me, I download last night the movies "Make it Happen" and "Deception". When it's done downloading, just double-click the file.

"Download" page will appear after you click "Download this file"

5. If it doesn't open that way, just save the .torrent file to an easy to locate place. Then open your torrent client and use the "Open Torrent" feature(Most torrent clients support click & drag).

6. In my case, the download starts automatically after I double-click the file. I can do something to pass the time, because torrents downloading do not require your attention and will download in the background.

Isn't torrents downloading easy? Try it for yourself. Even newbie like me can do it. Happy torrents downloading!

an AUNT for the first time!

I thank God for the safe delivery of my first niece, Hyphzybah Jazzyz "HJ" today at 11:37 am. She weighs 3.25 kg with the length of 52 cm. She's such a sweet, pretty, and a healthy cutie angel of my bro Ben and his wife sis Nonz. Congratulations to the both of you! I'm such a proud aunt!

Welcome to parenthood guyz:)

Romance fails us and so do friendships, but the relationship of parent and child, less noisy than all the others, remains indelible and indestructible, the strongest relationship on earth.

Update

Our break is almost finished. Next week we'll go back to school but my hubby already started their classes today. Tomorrow, I need to go to school for a general check-up. I supposed to post here some photos taken during our English camp but I'm still too busy. I had to do it the next time I have time. Stay tuned:)
