My friend sent me a link to download a movie from BitTorrent but I can't get the link to work. What do I have to do to download movies from BitTorrent?
BitTorrent downloads, usually simply referred to as Torrents are generally presented as an address to a file. The link you got from your friend was probably for something that ends with .torrent at the end. That .torrent link is a reference that tells you where to connect up to a torrent tracking server to locate the actual file referenced by the torrent. In order to make the link work, you need a BitTorrent client software application that knows how to handle the .torrent link. It sounds a little confusing, but it's really not so bad once you get things setup. There are a few simple steps you need to follow and you'll be watching that movie in no time.
