What is a 'Magnet link'? I was browsing for some bittorents and sow this: Azureus magnet link, what does that means?

MAGNET is an open URI-scheme and supporting practices/code for enabling seamless integration between websites and locally-running utilities, such as file-management tools. Here's an example of what a MAGNET URI could look like:

magnet:?xt=urn:sha1:YNCKHTQCWBTRNJIV4WNAE52SJUQCZO5C


Some software that handles MAGNET URIs:

* LimeWire, a file-sharing program using the Gnutella network.
* Bearshare, a file-sharing program using the Gnutella network.
* Xolox, a file-sharing program using the Gnutella network.
* Shareaza, a file-sharing program using the Gnutella network.
* TrustyFiles, a file-sharing program using the Gnutella network
* Kazaa Media Desktop, a wildly popular file-sharing program
