Actually if You have the 3rd Slack 10 cd, there is a /extra directory, containing usefull programs, like K3b and bittorent. In slackware you install a *.tgz package with the command: installpkg, in case you don't know it.
Sorry for not replying. Did you manage to download slackware? I never used bittorent in linux, but it shouldn't be so hard. Download the header file of slackware and read the manpage. There is a small Readme file in the folder of the bittorent package:ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/slackwar...torrent/README. I live in Athens and use the ntua (National Technical Univercity of Athens) mirror you see above to download linux distros, which has a good bandwith, at least for me.
