No, torrent files are not copyrighted, so this is allowed. However, opening a torrent file in your BitTorrent client may start the process of downloading (and possibly uploading) copyrighted content. Depending on the circumstances, such as the content in question and the country you're living in, this might be illegal. In some countries, it is illegal to download and upload copyrighted material. In this case, make sure that you only download unlicensed content via BitTorrent.

There has been some controversy over this issue, technically torrents are not owned by the copyrighted owners of the product you're trying to download. The finished product of the torrent download apparently belongs to the copyrighted owner. (This depends on where you live) See similar questions...

Firstly, we recommend you scan the file(s) you download. BitDefender, NOD32, Kaspersky, Avast AntiVirus are some examples of antivirus software. These may be available for download directly from our site. (NOD32 is recommended by WarezFactor - Click for search results) If you don't scan your files with antivirus software there is a small chance your computer can be infected, even though we try very hard to keep infected files from being listed.

Mininova is the biggest torrent search engine and directory on the net. We started in January 2005 as an alternative to the (at that time very popular) SuprNova, which went offline at the end of 2004 due to legal issues. Our goal is to provide an easy-to-use directory and search engine for all kinds of torrent files. Visitors of Mininova can anonymously upload torrents to this website, tracked by any BitTorrent tracker. Scrape data (amount of seeds/leechers) is collected a few times a day.

The Cuboingo™ Installer is an executable program, identified by its ".exe" file extension. Once activated, this installer creates a folder called "Cuboingo" on your computer. Inside, the Cuboingo™ executable game ("cuboingo.exe" or "cuboingo_demo.exe") is accompanied by various folders comprising files inside them (scripts, sounds, stats, etc.). If you're not sure what a folder or its contents are for, be sure to view the "readme.txt" text file located in each directory. See similar questions...

Very likely, although they may see a routing address that your Internet Service uses. It is possible to test this with a program like TCPView and a friend. If you can see each other downloading the same file, then the answer is "yes". If you are concerned about the RIAA Dragnet, know that they are not currently prosecuting BitTorrent users as they tend to only share a small number of music files. See "Safeguard Against RIAA" and "Boycott The RIAA". See similar questions...

For a standard 1 hour MULO recording the MP3 file size is 28Mb. The encoding rate for MP3 recordings is 64Kbps. Listening to 1 hour of an audio streamed Real Media file would for most users download approximately 14Mb of data at a streaming rate of 32 Kbps. For a small number of users with a lower performance computer/modem setup the streaming rate may default to 16Kbps. In this case approximately 7 Mb of data would be downloaded over a 1 hour period.

When Napster was first launched in 1999, the music industry reacted by suing the company for encouraging copyright infringement. The labels won that battle when the Internet startup was forced into bankruptcy, but a score of alternative programs arose to take Napster's place, such as Gnutella, Kazaa and LimeWire. The labels had learned from their experience with Napster that the litigation process could be slow. See similar questions...

A:) Well Sparky, I'm glad you asked. Simply go to ftp://127.0.0.1 and you'll find everything you need. It's got over 7 gigs of CE-specific programs, and because of this it's extremely busy. You'll need to be very patient and very persistent. Try either really early in the morning (7am MST) or really late at night (4am MST). Set your FTP timeout to maximum, and keep at it for days or weeks if need be. Trust me, you'll get what you deserve if you work hard enough! See similar questions...
