Who linked to a good bittorrent how-to recently?

I believe it was in "PC Games by Title" maybe the Morrowind, or UT2K4 one?
I couldn't find it.

Anyways, I started to read it, but got side-tracked. And then I shut down for the night forgetting to bookmark it.

Much appreciated

It was in the UT2004 thread. I'd link, but have no experience. It's on page 2.

Can I hijack the thread to ask what the risks are in opening the ports necessary for bittorrent to work?

I don't know the technical answer to that, but i've been using it for a while now without any problems.

I allow the program initial access, and then once in awhile i'll get a warning of an attempted intrusion.
Sometimes i'll ignore it, sometimes i'll block it permanantly.

So far, so good.
