(Problems with magnets links are fixed by upgrading your torrent client!

BitComet BitComet General Discussion

I have just seen the above comment on Torrent Files, The link points to BITLORD. What is this and is it safe to Download please?

2

Bitcomet handles magnet files with no problem - why ask about a different program?

3

When I click on “get this torrent” nothing happens. Underneath “get this torrent” I can see a message " (Problems with magnets links are fixed by upgrading your torrent client!) Selecting Torrent Client leads me to BITLORD, hence my question.

4

open the magnet on the web page and when prompted ‘open with bitcomet’

Many thanks for your reply. I am a bit new to this so can you please send me link to Magent web page. Thanks

‘Magnet links’ isn’t a program. It’s simply another way of initiating a download. It’s used when there is a problem with downloading the actual .torrent file and is’s shown by a yellow download mark instead of the green one. It may take a while before Bitcomet can actually initiate the transfer as it has to find trackers that match the hashtag of the file.

that is an advertisement, a shady way of getting people to use their client.
