How do I start using BitTorrents?

BitTorrent “swarming” requires six major ingredients.

  1. BitTorrent client software (there are dozens of choices, all free to install. See next page for software suggestions.).
  2. A tracker server (hundreds of them exist on the Web, no cost to use).
  3. A .torrent text file that points to the movie/song/file you want to download.
  4. A Torrent search engine that helps you find these .torrent text files. (See next page for Torrent search links.)
  5. A specially-configured Internet connection with port 6881 opened on the server/router to allow Torrent file trading.
  6. A working understanding of file management on your PC/Macintosh. You will need to navigate hundreds of folders and filenames to make file sharing work for you.
