I really have to remember to buy a postcard. Meanwhile, torrent's stuck at about 42% (sigh....)

Several hours later, I'm up to 47% and stalled again. Is anyone seeding this?

Yes, me. For reasons too tedious to relate, I had to stop seeding temporarily. Back on now.

Well, it's easy really. Firstly you go and install yourself a BitTorrent client. I use uTorrent which can be downloaded FOC from www.utorrent.com . Then when you want to download a torrent you click on the link indicated. This downloads a small text file with a .torrent extension. If you are lucky, uTorrent will open and ask you to confirm the download. Otherwise your browser will ask you which application to use, in which case navigate to "C:\Progam Files\uTorrent\uTorrent.exe" . And off you go.

Great, thanks.

I'm pretty new to the bittorrent thing myself, but with the right client (tried Bitcomet, didn't like it, switched to Azureus) and some good trackers, it's not too difficult and you can find some really neat stuff out there. I think it was that Kate Bush Christmas special that convinced me it was time to give bittorrent a shot.

Woo hoo! The torrent just finished downloading. I'll keep seeding it myself for the time being. Thanks to everyone involved in making this happen.

Cerise, you can take my name off the mailing list, and I will try to get that postcard in soon.
