Torrents?

Torrents
This (to me) is a new term that is appearing more and more, anybody care to give a brief run down on what it is?

Perhaps you're referring to BitTorrents?

This is often shortened to just "Torrent".

Simply put, it's a way to share files (any kind of file) without storing them on a single server and without having to download them from a single source. When you download a file using BitTorrent you are getting the file from multiple sources at the same time. (And, other people are getting from you the pieces you already have.)

For terms like this, Wiki is your friend.

I use U-Torrent now www.utorrent.com

Read the trouble shooting section/forum to find out how to optomise it.

Torrents - Twats would be a better word with my experiences so far!
down loaded Utorrents, and thats it, from what I am still working out, my connection is not set up to forward, as proxy connection etc etc, I'm lazy, don't wont to go thru all this button tweaking.
Reconfiguring network is not straight forward, think Multi national company I work for will be pissed if I alter their satellite position.
