I would stay away from down loading torrent, some are riddled

with viruses so unless you have proper anti virus I would keep

away, using Avg free is no good either

Hi,

right utorrent is just your server for downloading the films.

go to bt junkie or pirate bay,
search for your film then download, u torrent will do the rest,

most films downloaded need VLC player so advisable that you download that as well, some play with window player but most dont.

good luck

Download this first:


This will enable you to download from torrent sites, without a torrent client, you won't be able to download.

Torrent sites:






Be careful though when downloading torrents. Some have a lot of viruses. Read the comments under it first, often you will find out this way. Also make sure you have a good antivirus.

Sorry, meant to give you this link instead:


I found this to be very good. Download this first of all. Basically what happens is, when you go to a torrent site and find a torrent you want to download, when you click download, the torrent client which you downloaded will automatically open.

Look at how many seeders and leeches there are as this will affect the speed of your download. Have a read of this to get an understanding of it:


Good luck
