Default Torrent Install

Dumb question but I haven't installed one before. I have WinRAR.

How do I install a torrent mod and where ?

Thx in advance for help.

Torrent mod?

You can get a program to download torrents at quite a few places, some of the more popular ones include µTorrent and Azureus

I the readme a .nfo?

You can use this to view NFOs, or simply open with Notepad.


A torrent only contains info on the tracker and the desired content. Open up the torrent in uTorrent and let it finish the download. (just in case, not sure how far along you are)

Utorrent is good. Make sure you filter all the garbage with an ipfilter.dat file.
