[asdf29]

i am NEW to downloading. i have finally figured out how to download torrents.

as far as i know, there are magic elves working their asses off inside the computer assembling data and making files on my desktop.

i am trying to figure out how i can help or host. i am weary of this, i never leave my internet connection on (i don't have good security/firewalls. maybe i shouldn't admit that)...

point is, i have no freakin' idea what is going on here and i don't wanna just be another "leech."

i haven't been able to find a page that addresses this (though i'm sure it's here).

(please note, i have been trading tapes/cdr's for years. i'm not NEW to trading, just new to the digital side)

any info appreciated.
