When you download a torrent save it to desktop (Well, its what i do), then go to your Desktop and click on the Torrent (A Picture of a Blue Frog), that should open Azureus up - A box will apper over it, Click okay and ur Torrent should start to download.

Yeah i've been doing that but look, the OK button doesn't make it able to be clicked. Here is a screenshot...



What's up with it? Is there something i have to do or is it just not working? Thanks in advance.

Were it says 'Location to save data:' browse for the the folder you want to save the shows to. Then You should be able to click 'ok'

It hasn't downloaded a thing yet, no %. It has a red wierd looking face to and when i hover the mouse over it, it says 'means that your not connected to any peer while downloading' Do you know what that means? Or does anybody?

I think that means the host. No one is hosting the file at the moment.

Yes, I means that nobody is hosting the file. BUT When i first got Azureus i just left it like that for a while and it finally kicked into action.

How long it will take depends how big the file is. Im downloadin BBAUS at the moment and each Week is about 1.71GB to downalod -- This usally takes about 2 Days but i thinks thats because my computer really is shite.

My downloading speed is really slow these days. Highest I get is like 12KB. I guess it all depends on your speed?

The Host is ther person who has put the file up for download. So when sombody puts a file up for download there 'hosting' the file. Does that make sense??

Anyway, You said u were useing Mininova and i just thaught u migth like this site. Its much better then Mininove and the files and are hosted for longer - www.demonoid.com
