Bit Torrent Hi guys Can someone explain what this is, what it does and how I can get it? :flowers: Please go thru the latter in very simple format as Im hopeless with all this technical stuff. Ive been on http://bittorrent.com/ but its asking me to choose a mirror. I do but nothing happens. What do I do then? And will it affect anything else I do on my computer? The reason I want it is for the music downloads that Ive found but are only available to these users Thank you
Yo Yo Yo!! 1. Download Azureus 2. Download Safepeer (instructions inside zip file) Install Azureus 1st - its ded easy - then goto the folder u installed azureus (c:\program files\azureus\plugins) and make a new folder called safepeer - copy the contents of the safepeer zipfile into this folder) Then just try and run azureus - it might ask u to get java - just say yes if u need to and it will grab it automatically. Theeen......just configure azureus using the wizard - ded easy. Finally - just search on google for torrents.....for example if u want a movie called hide and seek...goto google and type in... hide and seek torrent Shud find u sum U will pick it all up - its ded easy once u get started.
Im struggling to copy the files to the new safepeer folder Wont let me copy them and when I click on extract, it says there are no files to extract :spangled:
after u have installed azureus - thats the important thing to get u goin. safepeer just gives u sum extra "protection" cos it stops u sending files to blacklisted ips (government etc) - so keeps em off ur back lol.
Ive configured it and there's an error message popped up with a frog saying "Cant read 'plugin.properties' for plugin 'safepeer': file may be missing". But I saved the safepeer into that file :spangled:
so inside c:\program files\azureus\plugins\safepeer\ u only have files - not any other folders? try jus deletin it - u can get by without it for now
What delete safepeer??? What are seeds and peers?? Do I have to keep the little frog logo things in My Music?
if u cant get it workin yeah - not end of world. peers are other people...and seeds are ppl "seeding" or "sharing" the files/data u need....the more seeds there are the faster it shud download the little frog logo things i THINK are the torrent files? u dont need to keep em once u finished ur downloads
If the video files you've got aren't playing in media player or real player, download vlc here , install it, right click on the file and select play with vlc. Should work no problemo.
