Anyone here ever use Bit Torrent? July 10, 2012 1:05 pm FrankC

I have used it in situations where it was linked at a particular site but I have never known how to safely use it for movies, TV etc.

I went to what I thought was the main Torrent site and the first link I clicked got a pop-up AV warning and a flood of adware that I had to clean up.

A lot of people use it and swear by it so I imagine there is a safe way to use it.
