Many of you may be living in countries where anti-P2P organizations watch what you do every moment, and downloading torrents could get you arrested. Well, if that's the case, you'll be able to download torrents safely without being caught by those prying eyes.
This is all done using a small freeware called PeerGuardian. What this little application does is block unwanted IPs from being able to see what you're doing on your computer. You won't have to specify the IPs; it'll download and update lists automatically. The following tutorial will show you how to use this software efficiently.
Read the following steps and you'll hopefully be able to block those fishy IPs that monitor your torrent activity.
1. You'll first need to download PeerGuardian v2.07 from here.
2. Install it and then open it.
3. Once you open it, a wizard should appear. Click "Next".
4. I recommend the settings in the picture below. It's your choice in the end. Click "Next".
5. Keep everything the same and click "Next".
6. Click "Finish" to close the wizard.
7. It should automatically start to update the lists.
8. This is the main window. I recommend unblocking HTTP connections and keeping everything else the same.
9. You can see if the application is blocking any IPs here.
If you've done everything correctly, you should have an anti-piracy free torrent experience. Always check back here for more great and exclusive tutorials!
How to Block IPs Monitoring Your Activity

Some time ago, I showed you how to tweak uTorrent by playing around with the settings. Maybe you don't like playing around with settings that might screw up your computer, so I decided to show you an easier way to boost your uTorrent speed.
Don't forget though - it won't always work; the settings that the application uses may not be compatible with your network settings.
1. Download the uTorrent SpeedUp client from here.
2. Install the client to your computer.
3. Open it up, and keep it open while you download.
It should boost up your download speeds, but if it doesn't, that could mean your network settings don't work with the client. It worked perfectly with me, so I wanted to spread the news.

uTorrent is one of the best BitTorrent clients, but it lacks one thing; design. So I decided to post a tutorial on how to add skins to uTorrent. This will be a quick guide, and will take you only about 5-10 minutes.
1. Go to uTorrent Skins Page, which can be found here or you can go to the skin forums.
2. Look for a skin that you like, and then download it to your computer.
Skins Page
You'll have to download each component alone; Toolbar, Status Icons, Tab Icons and Program Icons.
Skin Forums
Here you get the whole set on one page, which is a lot easier.
3. Copy all the files and go to Start>Run and type %AppData%\uTorrent in the box.
4. Click on "OK", and then a window should appear. Paste your files here. (There should be 4 images in each set)
5. Restart uTorrent, and it should work.

I decided to write a special tutorial for this site, a very useful tutorial that impresses me all the time. This tutorial will show you the optimal settings for uTorrent, and, if your ISP doesn't throttle P2P connections (like me), will boost up your download speeds. Follow the pictures, and you'll hopefully stay on the right path.
First off, you'll need to download uTorrent (if you haven't already). Install it, and then follow the pictures carefully for optimal settings.
Setting the priority to high is optional, but it'll give you an extra boost. It will lag other programs that use the internet though.
I hope this tutorial helped you. If you have any questions, post a comment! Always check back for more great tutorials on P2P Heaven!

Some of you might have not yet understood how to download torrents, so I thought I'd make a more easier-to-understand tutorial regarding this matter. Torrents, as I said earlier, are the no.1 source of P2P downloads in the world.
File Sharing clients have no chance against the vast BitTorrent network. To download torrents, you have to use a BitTorrent client. My favourite client is uTorrent because of it's small size and high efficiency.
This tutorial will show you how to install uTorrent and how to download torrents as well.
1. Download uTorrent here.
2. Install it to your preferred location. (I couldn't upload a pic for this because I already have it installed and I have downloads running).
3. Now you should have a window like this, but without the downloads.
4. Go to Options>Preferences .
5. Change the settings here to whatever suits you best.
6. Here you can change settings regarding Display and Minimizing/Maximizing.
7. Change the Download directories to whatever you prefer.
8. You can add a proxy here (Not recommended).
9. I don't recommend changing any of these settings unless you know what you're doing.
10. Keep these the same.
11. Change these settings if you want.
12. Leave the rest untouched.
13. Now it's time to download!
14. Go to MiniNova.
15. At the top of the page, in the Search bar, type in what you're looking for and then hit Enter.
16. Once the results come up, look for the one that suits you, and check the number of seeds/leechers. If you want the highest seeded torrents to come up first, click on the word Seeds.
17. Once you found the torrent you want, click on it's name.
18. A new page will load up with info on it. Look at the torrent health bar. Make sure it's Yellow or Green (Green is the best).
19. Click on the "Download this Torrent" button at the top of the page.
20. After the torrent has finished downloading, go to uTorrent and press Ctrl+O. A box should appear. Find your file, and click Open.
Voila! Your torrent should automatically start downloading. If you have any problems, post a comment. I hope this tutorial helped you.
