Superstar What a great reply, I too am one of those people that are addicted to computers, I have managed to turn my addiction into a business. I have been at it for a while, better then 30 years and was using the internet long before Al Gore invented it thanks to the military.
But to accept your point about internet porn then we have to admit that bandwidth has become cheap enough for that industry to flourish. To find a web site with no advertising on it is a rare find these days, even MG sells advertising space to offset the cost of bandwidth further making it even cheaper.
I read a while back that online porn is a 3 billion dollar a year business, which amazes me. Now back to the original topic of this thread, Someone wants to use a torrent client to download one file, a linux distro, and has concerns about uninstalling it, I still say they fastest way and the safest way for him to get that is by direct download from the ftp server at their site.
I also think that if he is going to download files other then that one distro, then go with a torrent client, I noticed last week that one of the major torrent sites, ISO hunt, was closed down for a while, thanks to legal troubles, and this is a regular occurance with the major torrent sites. It makes the news real regular how Microsoft goes through and invades several of these sites removing their software, most notably some of the hacked to death copies of Vista.
Lets face it none of the Linux sites ever get these problems. I have seen files that are badly miss labeled, incorrect versions, files that are way larger then they should be, so it has now gotten to where you have to do a lot of research to download anything. I use utorrent, but I also use way more malware protection then I probably need, simply because I have learned that if Spysweeper says my system is clean, I find that Spyware terminator will find something, and adaware will find something, etc.
I was wondering a while back what would our computers look like if we didn't have to spend so much time battling malware, I know I would have a lot of extra space on my system, a lot less little icons in the taskbar, a lot less things popping up, and lets face it, there would be a lot less posts in these forums!
Nope no heated debate here, I expressed a opinion, and based on my knowledge and experience I stick with that opinion, or I would not have given it in the first place. DAKz , Jan 28, Well said DAKz, I just use utorrent to grab distros.
Just to save them bandwidth as I'm not paying for anything here except for my connection. Buyer beware! First its the up that matters not your 11 down. Colemanguy , Jan 28, Superstar, it seems your thread has been hijacked so here's what you should set your connection type to. This way you are not hurting your download speeds and you are uploading at a fair rate. A lot that has been said is true, but there are security risks with everything you do on the Internet.
As long as you use common sense and stay away from porn and illegal torrents and make sure your anti-virus, and firewall are up to date, you shouldn't have a problem.
Good luck with those sound recordings from your friend's group. OverCooked , Jan 28, The xxx is download xxx probably meaning unlimited , k is your upload limit.
OverCooked , Jan 29, Thank you all very much. All my questions have been answered. I appreciate your responses. I still don't have a firewall on my system. All I use is the win xp one I dunno though becuase I've tried zone alarm before and they block everything. I hate that You always hear it buzzin and blocking I sure would like some extra security but it's annoying.
Unless there is something better than that. Your kidding right? Zone Alarm has to be one of the easiest firewalls there is! It works very well, it updates itself, it allows you a couple of ways of shutting all internet activity off, it's free, it learns as you go along, it allows you to add or remove program permissions, it's free, it works as a fine compliment to windows firewall, it watches your e-mail, ohh did I mention that it's free?
DAKz , Jan 30, Good answer Justin. Real deep. I can get lots from that. When you uninstall ZA it does nothing to your windows config. And if you go through and configure your program presmissions then you don't get all those pop ups, I leave some of them on so it will tell me if my computer is getting an attack.

But here we notice something else: search result 1 has a total file size of MB, but the quality of p, while result 2 has a file size of only MB and quality of probably p or p.
Another important thing to do, especially on newer movie files or many software files, is to check the comments section. That way, you can get feedback on the quality of the file or any problems people had watching the movie, installing the program, etc. We did a quick search for the movie Venom, which at the time only had a CAM-quality file uploaded.
In the comments section, users will often notify you of any virus warnings, which can help you avoid dirty files. For the most part, in the past, people simply downloaded the actual torrent file, which is a small file that contains all the information about the larger file you want to download. This is much faster and more convenient for torrenters.
Additionally, the Pirate Bay decided to remove all torrent files in and have been offering only magnet links since then. This is also a good point to check what format the file is in.
This is because there are too many smaller, unnecessary files contained here. In fact, you can be almost sure that some of the torrents pretending to be, i.
