Hi there

New to this and very confused. I wanted to start watching & downloading movies ect. I joined MovieAdvanced last night and it told me to download Limewire, I got the pro version. I have Windows Xp on a Compaq N600c Laptop. I use NTL/Freedom Broadband 1 speed I think.

I am trying to download an episode of Lost, it's fine looks like a few hours to complete until all this uploading starts, whats all that about. I have nothing downloaded to share ! It looks like people uploading what I am downloading & it slows the speed from about 22 to 4 !

I also thought I could just watch stuff not just download it ?

Bit worried about sharing too, can someone see all my stuff ? Is it safe ? What if I log off and their no finished ?

What was the point of joining MovieAdvanced ? Could I have just bought Limewire ?

Can someone give me some advice please

Thanks
