Guide to using Torrents part 1
There are many programs that are too big to download through a mirror, or a website. Sometimes the upload speed on the website cannot be high enough, so some people use a method referred to as torrenting. Torrenting is basically a term that is used to explain the use of downloading through a torrent program. Basically what torrenting does is makes your downloading experience a lot more quicker because you have multiple people that upload certain parts of the data. Then you just download whatever people are uploading, to create your complete file. Torrenting is actually one of the quickest ways to download large programs, but your bandwidth is quite high on the downloading end. There are many things that I am going to recommend about torrents, starting with the procedure, ethical issues, etiquette, and different types of programs. So basically, when you download a torrent, you are putting many pieces of a file together that you are downloading from other people. Most torrent sites and torrent programs are safe, but some of them can be unsafe and have viruses. I will recommend a list of safe sites and programs that you can use to download. There are two types of torrent sites, public and private sites. Mainly the public ones have a bunch of files that people upload publicly. Unfortunately, a majority of the public sites are known to have many viruses uploaded to them, so be careful if you use a public site. You should always read the reviews of a torrent, before you download it.
