Torrents are compressed files found on the internet, you use torrent downloarders such as bitlord or bitcomet to download the files to your computer.

How can it not work? You just run the standalone.

BitLord is a spyware infested piece of crap.

And if your a member of a private torrent site they ban many clients like those listed above (BitComet,BitLord,BitRoll,etc.). Many if not all recommend uTorrent or Azureus as their clients of choice.

Axwardle, if your computer locks up from a simple program like uTorrent, I have no idea how it can run certain others. Perhaps there's a flaw in your hardware that can't handle certain exceptions, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Try installing the full version, or if you did that, try the standalone exe. Make sure you're using the 1.6 stable, not the 1.6.1 beta. That could be one of the reasons why it's locking up.

BitLord, BitComet, and a few others are all coded off the same engine.

It may work "just fine" but that doesnt mean the program itself doesn't install Spyware/Adware/etc.

BitTorrent is a file distribution system used for transferring files across a network of people. As you download a file, BitTorrent places what you download on upload for other users; when multiple people are downloading the same file at the same time they upload pieces of the file to each other. BitTorrent pieces together the file you are downloading, to where the first part of a file you get may be the last part someone else gets. As you continue to retrieve the file, BitTorrent also uploads data to other users. For example, a person with 98 percent of the file done is directed to the people with the 2 percent of the file they still need.

That's fantastic, but that still doesn't hold any relativity to what anyone was saying. Although it did clear up some things for me :D
