Well what finished in one second wasnt the movie file itself, but rather a torrent file. If Bittorrent was installed correctly you should have been able to double-click on it to start the download of the film.

Oh, after you downloaded bittorrent did you install it?

LOL...well Im just saying, if Windows cant reqognize the bittorent file format the most obvious explanation is that the program itself isnt installed. But since it is, when Windows says it cant find the program to open the file with, just browse to the Bittorrent installation path and use the executable there to open it with.

Ok so after its allocated space for the file, and it says connecting to peers it comes up with that problem? Hmm...well it may just be a problem with the tracker, just wait a little while and it should start downloading eventually.

So it's working now? Give it a chance to build up speed it can't have been going long. Remember on BitTorrent usually the newer and more popular the file is, the faster the speeds.

edit: just remembered what you're getting - guess you dont have to worry about the popularity of the file ;)
