Answer 1

A peer is the one who had the original file, and is hosting it, a seed is those who have copies of the file, like you, if you ever get it!
It looks like only ONE person has the file you want, so if they are not on line, you cannot get it!
Look else where, or give up.
Also don't do what I did, and ALWAYS check they have 100% of the file, I downloaded 3 gigs, and then it stopped, because EVERYONE only had 3 gigs, and not the full file.............lol

Answer 2

Hi Len, know what you mean its a mine field out there!
First things first. Peers or Seeders, are basically people connected to net that are "feeding" or "sharing" the information with the net.
You also have "leeching" or "leechers". These are people who are DOWNLOADING information. So, if you can, make sure there is more people seeding rather than leeching, when you want to download something. If there are more people "leeching", it will take a long time to download, if at all!

I don't know of the system you are using to download, so I cant help you there. But if you have no luck try Bitcomet or Bitlord. I use Bitcomet, and for downloads, I have no problems.

Hope this helps, if not, sorry.

Answer 3

dosnt matter what download software you us(utorrent/bitcomet etc) comes down to the tracker, (right click on ur download file -go to bottom ,click and there at top is ur trackers, you can if want(dosnt always work) paste in here (make sure u press first to unhighlight the exist tracker(s)), copy other trackers from other torrents(THIS IS WORKING WITHIN UTORRENT)-again dosnt always work, but basically to get download someone needs to be SEEDING and then that tracker will pick that up, Make sure you got connect to peers ticked, because you can still pick up traces and blocks of these without the tracker, but its the tracker that keeps the peers up to date and finds new seeds :-)/////as for not enough space on disc you must have a FAT32 fileing system -this can only store files of up to 4gig-no bigger,where as a NT--cant remember other letters file system can hold a lot more, although - there are many benifits of having a FAT32 over the other-and any drive can be formatted in either formats, just make sure u back up that drive first---hope that helped------nother thing you could try is going on any normal search engine and search the web for it or other torrents of the same name-u find one, download it to ur torrent file and use what ever torrent engine you use to download it just like you would looking through there(utorrent etc) bundled trackers, you see torrents from the net are fast, mostly reliable, consistant stream, and dosnt use peers

Answer 4

this is not your torrent software then. this is purely that there are not adequate seeds and that slows it down. you may attempt fix that situation by using downloading the best same torrent document from some different website and placing out them in utorrent. Utorrent will ask in case you opt to load the trackers and you click definite

Answer 5

Better just quite and try to find different torrent.
