A lot of mystery seems to surround downloading torrent files….actually the process is much like Limewire or morpheus and other peer to peer programs. The small .tor file is just a file that tells bittorrent where to download the files from….not the actual file(s). Select the downloads with the most seeders...not leechers.

Speed is the main difference...much faster . You will want to have poweriso or magiciso installed and a good antivirus program. Most of the files can be “mounted and installed from poweriso (without having to burn a disc:).

In some cases you may download many “zip” files for one program...remember select them all at the same time to unzip!! ALWAYS VIRUS SCAN YOUR DOWNLOADS!!

SOME COMMON TORRENT FILE TYPES (usually image files for burning a disc...but they also can be “mounted” with Poweriso available at isohunt.com or torrentportal.com )
