    And a good day to you all. You have no idea how happy I am to have found this site. I’ve used it many times for advice and guidance and it’s been a great help, but I never bothered to look at the forum section because after a quick scan it seemed too technical and irrelevant to what I was doing at the time. I now know better.

    While I need some technical advice for minor problems my main reason for coming to the forums is to try to get more general advice on how to find a way to create an efficient system for movie downloading. I am an old, buggered up Canadian working as a Security Guard. I recently bought a new laptop with the intention of having something to do during long boring shifts and quite logically asked “Why am I paying for movies when I can download them for free?

    This has led me into the wonderful world of torrents, torrent clients, download accelerators, codecs, and a whole new language.

    I think the nuts and bolts of the matter is that I need direction as to where I can go to find out how to comprehend all this new junk.

    Anybody with pointers will have my personal blessing and eternal gratitude
