Option A: BitTorrent.

- I recommend using BitTornado as your BT client.
- Go to http://btefnet.com and then drop the menu down to "The O.C."
- Click on the link to download the torrent. Resumable.

Option B: IRC.

- If you haven't got mIRC already, get it.
- Set the options, details, and the DCC send/chat properties correctly.
- Type /server irc.easynews.com to connect to the EFNET server.
- Type /j #TheOC-Files to join the downloads channel (#TheOC is their chatroom for any help regarding downloading or general OC chat.)

I reccomend Azureus.

It sorts the torrents and doesn't bombard you with windows that can close, its tucks itself inot the system tray you you dont notice it while using the comoputer normally

I use BitTorrent (Shad0ws Experimental)

Which is tops. Tucks into your system tray. No fuss at all.

thanx champ!

im using your option (a) and i have the programs and am downloading the file ... but i can't follow the screen to see if its working?

it says its downloading at like 5 kbs and will take forever!! how can i speed it up?

also it says its downloading as a *file (*) ... it is also an .avi which i assume means that once its completed it will be able to watch on my computer?? right?/?

thanx again dude

Another option after 2 is to use a site like Packetnews or IRCspy and let it find your legal files.

Make sure you get Azureus, it is the best client.

[Borgsta]

type it in in google and you will find many links. u cant make the files download any quicker, it just depends how many ppl have the file available for download.

Bloody hell I really dont get this...

Ok I've just downloaded a 'torrent' file from SuprNova and it's on my desktop. Now I KNOW it's not the game cos it's lik 900mb and it took about 3 secs, so what do I do with it now?

Sorry but I'm only used to LimeWire, Ares, etc.

The torrent file contains the information necessary for your bittorrent client to start downloading the file/s. If you have a bittorrent installed like Azureus, it should automatically start when you double click on the torrent file. Alternatively, just go to Azureus and go to file->open

Don't you ever get sick of helping me??

Cheers mate.

 

[Renegade]

yeah that should work leonmagic.
Once the little file is downloaded, double click, then it should ask where to save it and bingo you're on your way.
