Using this particular Torrent, how would I go about downloading music and videos,especially by using outside sources? (I've checked the Vuze database for songs and videos, but I couldn't find any in particular that held my interest. Except this one video about a deer punching a bothersome tourist at the Nara deer park, but I digress.)

Anyway, would you care to help me with this problem? Recommend "outside" source websites which I can download music and videos? Give me hot secks?

Downloading via HTTP and downloading via torrenting are two different things.

When you torrent, you search for torrent files hosted by websites. These files are tracked with, uh, trackers that tell you things about the torrent file (like how many seeders there are, how many leechers, etc.) that you should know.

Try http://www.thepiratebay.org or http://www.torrentz.com/. There are plenty, plenty of torrent sites out there, but these are just two of them.

Thanks for the links.

Leechers? Seeders? Downloading via HTTP? What?
(Please keep it very simple, as I am computer illiterate. Well, I can apparently handle surfing the Internet and downloading music, but that's not my point.)

Downloading via HTTP is what you do when you view webpages with your web browser.

Leechers are people who download torrents. Seeders are people who provide existing copies of the files for leechers.

Hehe, thanks. sweatdrop

(Could you also happen to tell me how I can check if Windows Movie Maker is on my computer / how to acquire it? I'm desperate, since no one in my movie project group has a program to edit videos.)

It should be in Accessories, I think. If not there, try checking the Control Panel for your Add/Remove Programs option. It will list all the programs you have on your computer. If you see Windows Movie Maker there, then you have it.

Never? But it's an essential part of being a pirate!
