Bit Torrent is a peer to peer (P2P) file sharing system.
To use this system you need a Bit Torrent client.
There are many clients to choose from.
Go to http://www.slyck.com/bt.php?page=2 for a list of clients and more detailed information
Seeding is when you are using a Bit torrent client to alow other users to download files from your computer. Again the web site above has more detail infomation about this also

BitTorrent is way way to share large files. You first download a .torrent file, then you open it with the appropriate software and then it will start getting chunks from so-called seeders, who already have the file and share it with you. By getting parts of the software from many sources at the same time, internet load is much lighter and it goes faster.
