    Sorry, I use uTorrent, a gui-base client running on MS-Windows. It 
has been very simple : I downloaded the file from my nearest CTAN mirror 
(about 2h1/2 ), I placed it in the directory to which BT saves
downloads for me, with the exact name spelled in the torrent 
(texlive-live.iso.zip)
     I then added the torrent in the client's torrent list. The program 
recognized the file, computed and checked the hash (against BT hash, not 
TUG's one ;-)), and began the spreading.
     I hope i might be as simple for you as it has been for me.

Bruno.
