Websites and softwares (Basics of Torrent)

Hello users, this is my first post. It will tell you about torrent softwares, how to download a file and websites to search torrents.

1. Software needed to download torrent files

uTorrent



Motto: A (very) tiny Bittorrent client.

utorrent is a torrent client which enables us to download torrent files. It's setup is even smaller (In Kb's) than a photo! One of the best torrent clients, it is made by Bittorrent Inc. Gives maximum speed when configured  properly.
It can be downloaded from www.utorrent.com.

 2. Where to download   

 ^{1. Torrentz}

Torrentz (torrentz.eu) is a website which is linked with 30 torrent websites. As a result, a large number of torrent files are available there. You can download the required files from there.

NOTE- Torrentz is linked with 30 websites. Some of these contain viruses. I recommend going to www.siteadvisor.com  or using McAfee Siteadvisor and checking which website is safe. And DON'T click on direct download to download your file. Download it from one of the torrent sources.

A search engine is also located in your Bittorrent/utorrent software at the upper-right side. To bring Torrentz into that search engine-

1. Go to torrentz.eu.
2. On the home page, click on 'utorrent Search Plugin'.
3. Download the file and run it to install Torrentz into your client.
4. To search using this, click on the arrow besides the search icon and select Torrentz, then enter your search keywords and press 'Enter'.

I will tell how to bring Torrentz.in (see 'A Safer Plan' for details) in this column in a separate post.

2. isoHunt


isoHunt is a BitTorrent index with over 1.7 million torrents in its database and 20 million peers from indexed torrents^.With 7.4 million unique visitors as of May 2006, isoHunt is one of the most popular BitTorrent search engines. Thousands of torrents are added to and deleted from it every day. Users of isoHunt perform over 40 million unique searches per month. On October 19, 2008, isoHunt passed the 1 petabyte mark for torrents indexed globally. The site is the third most popular BitTorrent site as of 2008. According to isoHunt, the total amount of shared content was more than 14.11 petabytes as of June 13, 2012.

The steps will be the same as for Torrentz, just the name will change and the URL will be http://isohunt.com/torrents/?ihq=}
