Need help with Bit Torrent

Things work and stop working a lot with suprnova. I would not use this for downloading copyrighted material since it is so easy for someone to figure out who downloaded what while you are downloading/uploading.

There is a lot of legit video trailers and game demos and patches on filerush.com

I tried using movielink to download an episode of the Howard Stern show and gave up after one. The download rate is ridiculously slow.

 

Anybody know how to use BT in a LAN? I don't have any permission to change the settings on the router.

 

Is it possible to download something with spyware/adware/malware within it? I downloaded the movie Cellular and now when I log off my XP account and log back on several hours later there are like 20 pop-ups each time? I use Firefox and never IE. Does the client (BitComet) have spyware/adware/malware? I did a Spybot and Adware scan so hopefully that will take care of it but I don't want it to happen again. I have logged off and when I get back home I'll repost if I have more pop-ups.

 

OK, I downloaded a movie and now I have two folders, a CD1 and a CD2. Both are full of file types I have never seen. Here is a pic ofn the files it is full of: http://community.webshots.com/photo/201162114/201268931RwvvWG
What are these files and how do I view the movie?

 

Those are .rar files, similar to .zip. UNRAR them w/ Winrar


www.winrar.com i believe

 

Used WINRAR and now I have this: http://community.webshots.com/photo/201162114/201519885gsfBSW

 

You can burn either of those files and watch the movie on your computer. Use NERO or something, they're called image files

 

Which bit torrent software do you guys recomend over the others?

 

If I burn them, how do I end up watching them?

 

on your computer, dvd player should pop up, something like windows media player

 

OK, that's it I don't have a DVD-Player or burner. Do I need that to view these types of files?

 

I don't know what type of movie you downloaded (dvd-rip, camera, etc)

The other thing you could do is get isobuster... download.com... and then you can view and extract the files inside the .bin file. Extract them a directory and see the movie that way... but like I said it depends on the type of movie you downloaded

 

Why does it depends, please explain and thanks for your help. I'm sorry but if you didn't know I'm the "Question Man" around these parts.

 

Lil Pun has just about worn out the "?" key on his keyboard.

 

Because a DVD-RIP is 4 gigs and needs to go on a DVD-R CD, while a CAM video is less than a gig and can normally fit on a CD-R

 

whats a .Bin file? I downloaded a video but it's in that format.

I don't know what to do with it.

 

.Bin .Cue and .Iso are files that you would usually need to burn onto a dvd or CD in order to play.

If you scroll up a bit, LongTimeFan mentions some stuff about extracting the .bin file, that I'm not that familiar with.

 

Thanks....I should have looked up in this thread. I am going to try the iso thing.

I am guessing I should include the cd1 BIN files and the cue file on disk 1.

I will just brun disk one and see what happens. thanks for the info.

 

cool....I got it to play on my pc by extracting it with the isot program.

 

Oh well the file I downloaded was less than a gig. I'm sorry, I'm heading out to buy a DVD-R. Welcome to the 21st century Lil Pun!
