DESCRIPTION

URL

Paste the URL of the file you want to download into this field. The URL

 

can be for an HTTP, FTP, or BitTorrent download.

 

For a BitTorrent download, you can copy and paste the URL of the

 

.torrent file. The NSA will automatically download the .torrent file and

 

use it. You do not have to manually download the .torrent file or save

 

it to your computer.

 

Note: Make sure the link opens either the file you want or a pop-

 

up window about how to handle the file.

 

It is also OK for the link to open a .torrent file. If you are redirected to

 

a screen that says the download should start in a few seconds, there

 

may be a link to click if the download does not start automatically.

 

See if that link opens the file or the pop-up window.

 

 

Torrent File

A “torrent” file has information the NSA uses to do a BitTorrent

 

download. A torrent file uses a .torrent extension. If you already have

 

a torrent file saved on your computer, select the Torrent File option

 

and specify its path or click Browse and look for its location.
