try www.bitcomet.com - pretty good torrent downloading program
after you download and install it, go to any site and get download a torrent file. you can OPEN it rather than SAVE it when u click the torrent file. this will allow bit comet to open the .torrent file and start dling it. XD if you need more help with torrents... u can msg me or talk to me on msn or something 'brianlui_911@hotmail.com' always glad to help. XD

P.S. when the download is complete (100%), u can delete it and go to C:\programfiles\bitcomet\downloads\ and click the file to play it. Xd

Those are the worst clients, well the original one from bittorrent.com
utorrent is by far the best client.
And once again, your post made no sense, yata.
And download the CCCP, by using the magical Google thing.

I stick with azureus....its pretty good...(The torrent file is just the link to the real download...you cant play it)
I reccomend Torrentspy.com for torrents...

You know why I don't like Azureus?
1: It runs on Java
2. It takes up 100000000MB of RAM
3. It takes up too much space.
4. You need to install it. (=^_^=)
Eh, torrentspy, mininova, piratebay, isohunt, there's a billion.

It's not that bittorrent is messed up. It's that you haven't gotten the right codecs needed to play the .avi file type. Most direct downloads are played in the RealPlayer, meaning it's in .RM format. You don't need an extra codec for that.

Like Teny said, you could try the CCCP codec, or you could just download DivX. DivX is strictly for playing .avi files, and takes up less space, but I think it'd be easier for you to download CCCP or the VLC Player for all-around codec functionality.

DivX (http://www.divx.com)
CCCP Codec (http://cccp-project.net/)
VLC Player (http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/win/27193)

^These are links to where you can download them.

Teny, calling people n00bs is just rude!!!

And u, from all the people in here, have no right to call anyone that. You dont know much about computers yourself (or atleast didnt know to start off)

So dont run around calling people noobs, when u just might be one of them

Also what yata said about cannot read file thingy, just might be because the torrent program is already using it. Or if u tried to access the file b4 it was completely downloaded, since parts will be missing, the file will seem corrupted

Going on, yes, utorrent is a good torrent client but Azureus and bitcomet are still good. I used all 3 of em and im most pleased with azureus, then utorrent.

Finally, i'll suggest yet another time, the k-lite mega codec pack, although cccp is good enough. Also dont believe that the VLC player can play everything without using codecs and with that small size of its. If u have no codecs installed it Will ask for them. So VLC is just another player.

And www.boxtorrents.com - is a good anime torrent site and all the rest that were mentioned as well

Good luck. And dont worry, things gottten a lot easier than 3 years ago, when torrent were only known to nerdy guys (like me)

I just wish suprnova was still alive......
