I downloaded the exe from torrent and when I try to open it I get a message saying "windows cannot open this file. Windows needs to know what program created it" blah blah, do I want to go online and look for a program.

Sounds like a corrupted download. It should be a regular executable.

Your better just downloading off filefront, torrents only download at like 30kb for me :hmmm: but yeh it should be.exe, or maybe your using vista and not administrator ? if so right click, and run as administrator.

hmm, this is strange. When I donwloaded the torrent file it only took a few seconds, but now I'm downloading from filefront it's going to take around 2 hours and 25 minutes according to my download screen. Is that right? I'm using DSL. Oh, and I'm on windows XP.

You do know what a torrent file is. You download the torrent file from our ftp and then use something like bittorrent or utorrent to open the torrent file which will then download EB. The torrent file just contains the information for downloading the EB install exe and does contain the file itself.
