i have heard some people mention that i can copy the link from the browser of the file that i want to download, and some how incorporate into the client program and start the downloadl. the browser is not recognizing the magnet protocol, hence i can never start the download. it seems like the problem (at least for me) is at the browser level. What does client software have to do with this. I have tried to going into about:config and putting in the following lines “” without any luck. i get the following message: “Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because the protocol (magnet) isn’t associated with any program.” the reason i ask this is because when i go to the piratebay, using my tor-browser (a very mini version of firefox), i am NOT allowed to download.
what does the client torrent software (qbittornet, Vuze.) have to do with the downloading between magnet and torrents files. I am not understanding a fundamental point in this tread about magnet links.
