I wasn't ignoring you. You just never answered my questions. I want to give you a specific answer, but I don't want to write more than I need. That might confuse you even more, especially if you've never used the program previously. (If you want information on how the program works, read the supporting website's FAQ.) So, are you using the actual Bittorrent client or a third party client? Also, where are you trying to get the file from (I have a recommendation for a site if yours doesn't pan out.), and what problems are you having specifically? Bittorrent is fairly easy to use, but I can't help you if you don't give me some details.  8-)

Okay, I'll do my best.  I'm using the Bit Torrent client.  As far as where I'm trying to get the files from, all I did was use the "Search for Torrents" in the client.  A webpage came up with links for the movie and I clicked on a couple.  They came up in the client but would never start downloading the files.  Also, I tried to click on the "Help" section in the client menu but the help page would never come up and I've had trouble getting to the Bit Torrent main website.  I'll run Ad Aware and see if that helps so I can get to the FAQ.  Thanks.

:-P

I'll have to get back to you on this. My session timed out after writing a long response. I'm a little annoyed right now. :x

  Even us old farts like video games, even though I remember pinball machines.
  I just got a new gforce video card and a a game called GUNN.  It is really good.

I recentlly picked up Black for the PS2.  I've only played a few missions so far, but it's pretty intense.  Now, this game is built around blowing stuff up and throwing bullets anywhere you can, but that's part of the fun.  The story starts out with a black ops agent who is being questioned about a botched mission and as he explains, you play through the events of the previous four days.  So, forget stealth just let the Kolishnikov do the talking.  Or Uzi, or whatever other weapon you may have at your disposal.  The only thing I don't like about this game is that EA Games has this thing about its shooters.  You practically have to unload an entire clip to take down the enemy, unless you shoot him in the head and that's just on Easy!  What happened to modles like Goldeneye for the N64 where you could take down an enemy in a more realistic manner? (Granted, with an increase in difficulty level, it did take more to take them down)  Anyway, overall this game is a good play to just blow some s**t up.  Enjoy!

I wonder if that will come out on the Xbox 360? I've been spoiled by Call of Duty 2, and that game was also very intense. I don't know if any other game can match up to it. Then again, I really liked Halo 2 also. Heck, maybe I just like first-person shooters. That's got to be it. I've played Half Life 2 for the PC multiple times. There's just something about virtually shooting virtual people that provides a lot of stress relief... :-D

(Oh yeah, don't forget to check your PM, Chuck.)

Any luck with the BitTorrent, Chuck?

Cool. Let me know if it turns out alright. The file that is. I know the movie's good. :-D

Care to elaborate? I've seen the trailer and heard a little about the game, but I'm not really sure if I want it.

Okay, I know even less than Thraxas.  What is Oblivion?
