Not exactly.

The torrent is the most inovative way to download from the internet. Is not a software, it is a way to distribute files over the internet.

The torrents are some files with the extension .torrent used by some software's like BitTorrent.

BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer (P2P) file distribution tool written by programmer Bram Cohen which debuted at CodeCon 2002. The reference implementation is written in Python and is released under the MIT License.

There are a lot of software companies who offers a way to download it's products through torrents.

They aren't for me. Pretty much everything I've dl'd via torrent took equally as long as the same file would on Kazaa Lite and it's not supposed to be that way, especially if there are a lot of users "seeding" the files.

I use either BT or Azureus like many other people I know and have yet to see 00ber dl speeds from either.

BTW Paul, if you chose a custom install when dl'ing fileshare or peer to peer software, you avoid the spyware install.

Well then it's well buried because I find nothing on my rig unless it's removed the next time I run spyware removal after installing this software.
