text: can anyone explain to me? i have no idea how to use the p2p program bit torrent. can someone pls give me a detailed description on how to use it.i tried downloading and it didn't work. the manual on how to use it was too complicated.  can someone pls help me out. bit torrents are different than p2p programs you are probably more familiar with.  the program that you download (probably from bittorent.com) only manages downloads.  you don't search for files with it, you just give it a very small file and it uses that to find places to get bits and pieces of the file so transfers are fast.    search on yahoo! for "torrent search" and you will get a lot of torrent search engines to find what you are looking for.  download the torrent file and then open it with bit torrent.  it will do the rest.    most torrent sites require you to do a certain share ratio, so be sure to leave your torrents running when you are done downloading or you could have trouble downloading in the future.  also, just for legality's sake, make sure you have permission to download whatever it is you are looking for ;)
