You can get it and some info about the program here.

The best sites for downloads are:

http://www.suprnova.org/
http://www.torrentse.cx/
http://bittorrent.bounceme.net/index.php
http://torrents.slash0.org/

There is no such thing as queues with BitTorrent B) , but there can be problems with some of the sites sometimes - seem to attract DOS attacks.

Basically it's the best thing to come out for ages as far as I'm concerned, unbelievable speeds on the newest releases. Enjoy

I've been on bittorent for a few weeks and i've tried to download loads of films. I've ended up cancelling them because they go fast at the start for about 2 minutes then goes down till it gets to zero, or it has problems connecting to the tracker. Does this happen for anyone else?

to me, bit torrent sucks. i downloaded it and tried to get matrix reloaded. its top download speed was 6 and said it would take 140 hours. how crappy is that. i tried some of the other links you posted and could not download anything. kept getting error 2. so, what is red hat that is listed on bit torrents page?

i'm already fed up with bit torrent. there is no search, and most anything i try to download returns with error 2.

give it some time and it'll speed up! i downloaded GTA vice city overnight on this program...there aren't any misnamed downloads...it's worlds ahead.
