You could hack the source to not upload, but then your download rate would suck. BitTorrent downloaders engage in tit-for-tat with their peers, so leeches have very little success downloading. BitTorrent pre-allocates the entire file when your download begins, then writes in pieces in random order as it gets them. As a result the file jumps to its full size immediately. BitTorrent will tell you when the download is complete.

You can't. You could hack BitTorrent, but remember that how much you upload affects your download speed. So if you don't upload your download speeds will suffer and you will also destroy the BitTorrent community. Remember: if nobody uploads, nobody can download. See similar questions...

If they see that the "upload" area is constantly at 0 for more than a few hours and decide to spend their processor cycles on more in-demand torrents. Some torrents - such as RedHat Linux will stop being distributed as soon as a new version of RedHat (now called Fedora) appears. It is best to try the torrent a few times at different times of the day and then, if there is no result, assume it is too old to be useful. See similar questions...

Don't worry. When you are downloading a particular torrent, you are also uploading that torrent at the same time. The parts of the file(s) that you have already downloaded are uploaded to other peers. This is normal, and it's how the protocol works. There is no "shared directory" setting as with other peer-to-peer applications. See similar questions...

BitTorrent is good and similar to FreeCache in that it balances download "horizontically". BitTorrent uses other BitTorrent clients for this balancing; these clients often become un-available after a particular file is not popular anymore. The FreeCache system utilizes permanent FreeCaches that don't go away (although particular files get flushed out after a while). Unlike BitTorrent, the FreeCache system is transparent to the end-user. See similar questions...

Such a device, when mounted correctly, can be aimed at your mailbox and capture images of whoever stops at the mail box. Some, like my trail camera, have two types of flash for night time capture of images. One of the flashes is the standard incandescent type we are all familiar with. The other is an infrared flash that does not give off the characteristic flash of light, but if the camera is within 15 feet of the mailbox, should work OK. See similar questions...

For the uninitiated, bittorrent is a program which distributes large files in a peer-to-peer network; clients can then access the files from the p2p network as if downloading them from a virtualized host. This distributes bandwidth costs over the entire p2p network instead of having one centralized server incurr those costs. Several readers have suggested that I distribute sacred-texts partially or exclusively over bittorrent to avoid paying the costs of bandwidth. See similar questions...
