be patient and fool around with it. it will probely take about 5 hours thought to download half-life at least for me it takes for ever. If that bittorrent doesnt work then uninstall it and try downloading a different one.(worked for me)

if you're just starting out, i recommend azureus. pirate bay is a great tracker too by the way. don't forget to open / forward ports 6881-6889 on your firewall and/or router or else you'll get very slow xfer speeds. remember, BT = take a penny, leave a penny - you only get what you give.
