| I've been downloading movies using torrents on my tablet and quickly became addicted. As some of you know I purchased a new computer with a 1080P HD screen and wanted to download some on my PC since it would be much faster. I ended up with all kinds of ad ware as a result which took me hours to get rid of and ended up uninstalling the torrent downloader to prevent it from happening again. Do any of you use torrents? I'm curious to know what you guys are using that won't infect my computer. I know there is always a risk involved with downloading torents, but this came from the actual program itself which was called Torrentz. I've had no issues using the android ttorents ap on my tablet. |

i use Tixati
i also go through a few sites
http://www.torrentday.com/
http://www.bitgamer.su/
http://www.demonoid.me/
http://thepiratebay.se/
i don't download much on torrents. i tend to pay for a service like rapidshare and download direct.
with torrents ppl are connecting to your computer. with rapidshare and others you just download.
not sure if anyone knows about Megaupload and the whole FBI sting taking them down, but there are thousands of sites like them
you go somewhere like
http://www.theextopia.com/
http://rlssource.net/
http://megauploadforum.net/
http://www.rlsbb.com/
there are literally a million of those sites.
you need any help just send me a PM i have been on the scene for about 20 years lol |

That being said, i never had a problem with this as far as virus or identity theft.
The Torrent starts out with one person making it available. a bunch of ppl download from that person. then each person who grabs it has a bunch more ppl they can get it from. it kinda goes viral and everyone has it. there is a way you can disable ppl from downloading from you, but if you do that ppl might shut you off and your downloads will be a lot slower. (it is frowned upon in the Warez community)
the way i see it i pay 7 bucks for someone like netload, use a page like http://www.rlsbb.com/ to get the links and i treat it like Netflix. the only thing better about this is i get new releases and also music, video games, programs, books etc etc etc. |
