    Easily accomplished by either using the save torrents as text/zip files (available on several sites), or by using SSL, which is also available on several sites.

    If you download a torrent as a text file, be sure to rename it to .torrent. If you download it as a zip file, simply extract the .torrent file

    you dont have to rename the txt file,you can use the "Add Torrent " option and select the txt file

    Depends on the client. Most should recognize it's a .torrent file regardless of the extension, yes. But you won't be able to find it in the "Add torrent" dialog unless you look for "*.txt".

    Just click all files at the bottom of the browse menu, instead of .torrent files.

    That can work as well unless you download .torrents to "My Documents" and the folder has 17000+ files, as it's my case.

    I use the "details" view and sort them by modification date if that counts.

    I remember I had a separate folder where all downloads would go, but after doing a random Windows reinstall four years ago and finishing to set Opera up, I resumed downloading the rest of the apps I needed. Having forgotten to change the download directory, it defaulted to "My Documents". I saved the file and said "I'll change it later".

    Have yet to do it.

    dude id still suggest not downloading too much on your schools network. Idk what school you go to and dont want to ask because we obviously arent friends and im not a creeper but as i said before most schools monitor their network very closely
    If you are going to do it id suggest doing it later at night when the IT depts are closed and so they cant actually actively catch you doing it(i.e. catch you red handed)
    either way GL bro and congrats on figuring out the fix to your problem
