i am trying to download off a bit torrent but its awful slow?am i doing something wrong?
07.04.2007, 16:13 quote
it basically means, the more people who are online sharing that file, the faster it will download...does that make sense.
And once it has downloaded it is always good to not move it and let others download it from you as well so they don't have the same problem
Hope that helped

Seeds- People who have the file.
Leechers- People who are downloading the file.
The more seeds the quicker your download, but itt laso depends on your connection. 2mb is a lot slower compared to a 10mb connection. You can also go into your task manager and stop any processes that you dont need and that gives you a quicker download as well.
It also depends on what sites you go on. Registered sites are the best, but your better to upload what you download as its good to share.
There is a lot of good leecher sites where you can stop the torrent once you have finished downloading a file, and some are fairly quick.
Hope this helps!!!
