Movie Torrent

I have been here for a wile as you can see. Ok, here is my question.

Open the .torrent file with BitTorrent and let it download. Not really difficult.

Yeah, but here is where the crap problem comes by! :D

The F***ING AOL company blocks torrent downloads. So, how do I beat that?!?! :(

You wait for Advent Children to be released and buy it like you're supposed to.

Stop associating yourself with AOL.

Yeah, but why not now.... :( Ok I will wait.

But one more question, will a 700 MB torrent file affect my speed, since I have dail-up. How long will it take with torrent? :confused:

700MB on dialup. Hmmmm a few weeks at most

Let's assume a 3k per second transfer speed, which is 28.8, for dial-up.

700 megs = 700,000 k
700,000 / 3 = 233,333 seconds = 3,888 minutes = 64.8 hours = 2.7 days

Have fun! :chef:

If AOL blocks torrent downloading, then you're SOL. Wait for the DVD.
