Hi guys

Anyone help me with this, I basically need to make some files available through BitTorrent, do I REALLY have to create an account...?

I like utorrent. I tried Azeurus ages ago, but couldn't get it working, however utorrent hasn't given me a problem... plus you can download a standalone version that you don't have to install. Azeurus is supposed to be good too though - just not for me!

i use utorrent too.

small size reasonably quick and doesn´t´think your computer has unlimited resources and it´s free.

I use utorrent but you can also use the latest version of flashget (now freeware) which supports bittorents. ALSO you should use a security programme when downloading/uploading bittorrents, I use PeerGuardian2 here http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/ this stops people from looking into your computer while you are downloading bittorrents (it's an IP blocker). Careful which bittorrent sites you go on as some can download viruses. Alternatively you can upload files to www.rapidshare.com or www.megaupload.com there are plenty more of them.
