Hmm, first of all, id go for azureus if i were u, cause u can shut down ur comp and still continue downloading later

then all u have to do is go to torrent sites, download a torrent, and open it with bittorrent/azureus

Lol, the next step would be asking how to reconstruct partial bittorrent files, such as movies. But, I won't ask that here.

It means that either the tracker is experiencing problems, or it may be proxy related, in which case you should disable it or find a work-around.
