Are there really no plain ordinary old-style downloads?? > Hi, Beartooth. What usually happens with a torrent is that you get a small file downloaded when you request the torrent. Then you start up azureus, and it will automatically read the information from that file and connect you to appropriate servers. If you are firewalled you need to open ports, 6881-6890, I think, but googling will confirm that for you. The other thing is to set a reasonable upload speed, because the download speed you can get will depend on it. Those who don't give back, don't get a fast download. Finally, please keep your torrent open after you have finished downloading - at least the same time as it took you to download. That way you help spread the load and, in a sense, pay back for the service you have had. HTH Anne
