Go to solution Solved by Me1z,

Since no one is giving the poor guy an answer, I might as well. If a torrent has 0 seeders and 1 leech then there is literally no way to finish the torrent. A situation like that is often refereed to as being a dead torrent, because its just that. The only way it would ever work is if you were to magically hunt down that one leeching ass-hat and physically force him to seed the torrent. Good luck with your completely legal downloading endeavors.  :)

Torrenting @gojira doesn't mean illegal

 

 

it means the person has a partial file, and nobody has a full file.

 

heres the full def

 

The term leech also refers to a peer (or peers) that has a negative effect on the swarm by having a very poor share ratio, downloading much more than they upload. Leeches may be on asymmetric Internet connections or do not leave their BitTorrent client open to seed the file after their download has completed.

you are likly to never get that torrent completed if only 1 leecher unless there is a private tracker that he has access to and you dont.... but really its unlikly to ever get the full fill and you will only get as much as the leecher has...  best try finding a diffrent torrent with more seeds... usualy there is multiple torrents that offer the same thing so look around i guess.. best of luck...

Many websites have torrent downloads for their programs to keep bandwidth down. Unengine benchmarking software for instance. Stay on topic please...

What me and my techie friends do, for example there was a group of pictures we were going to send, so we just torrented it to each other. (group of a bout 15)
