You have to download a torrent from a site like http://www.suprnova.org or an other one listed at http://www.btsites.tk
I personaly use the abc client its easy to use http://pingpong-abc.sourceforge.net/

If you'l behind a router you'll have to forward the ports bittorent uses 6881 -6999 and dont let the upload get flooded shape it down to a few kb's under your upload limit 512k/128k = 8 - 10 kB using a program like http://www.netlimiter.com or it will slow your downloads down.

Also if you havent got it already use protowall to block p2p enmies from connecting to you http://www.bluetack.co.uk

Sorry, mate. The only thing you can do there is to download another torrent. There's is bound to be one. Just look at all the sites to choose from. (http://filesharingtalk.com/index.php?showtopic=86674) But you can pretty much find anything on Suprnova.org.

Now, the person who set up that torrent probably didn't know what he was doing or was lazy in finding a tracker and put a tracker he didn't upload the file to or wasn't authorized to use. You know, not going through the proper channels, if ya know what I mean. Whatever the reason, that torrent should be useless, now.
