Torrent help.

How many peers are there?  Don't pay attention to the number trackers give, they are usually wrong.

Okay thanks for the tip.

But I already got it done.

w00t. I did my first torrent ever. I can't believe I didn't do this a long time ago.

why are you using uTorrent
it leaks information

It does?

My friend told me it works faster than bittorrent.

Utorrent leaks information to ISPs if IIRC.  I use BitComet, but theres tons of torrenting programs out there.

And I've been using uTorrent for awhile and no problems so...

Time Warner Cable recently acquired the company that produces uTorrent.  A leak was added to it that sends information to Time Warner, so they know how much you've been downloading/uploading and the sorts of content involved.

BitTorrent Inc owns uTorrent.

Then Time Warner owns them now AFAIK.

I looked up this stuff.

No, Time Warner doesn't own BitTorrent or uTorrent.
