How to Get Faster Speeds on uTorrent
The program uTorrent uses Torrents to help you download files from other users, such as movies or games. Unlike more standard file-sharing programs, such as LimeWire, Torrent programs such as uTorrent make use of the computers of many other users all downloading the same file at once. This means that your download will usually be faster than if you just got the file from one person. Additionally, there is a way in uTorrent to get even faster speeds using uTorrent's controls.
