Use utorrent to get them, and it should open them too.

a bit torrent

some good ones from memory are

BitComet
UTorrent

some of my personal favorites are

BitSpirit

possibly one of the best torrent clients out there

also

Warez

those are some of the best bitclients out there

there are others like Azureus, BitTornado and BitTorrent

as for torrents them selves there are many useful sites

www.scrapetorrent.com

^^ my personal favorite, it searches all the known torrent websites for the best hit

other popular ones include

MiniNova
MegaNova
TorrentReactor
BitJunkie

there are many out there you just have to look

some private ones are also better as they allow you to get the file quicker as there are more seeders than leechers.

some include

Demonoid
SupraNova
MatrixTorrents
TorrentLeech

you can request invitation codes for these particular websites so they can allow you to use there tracker and torrents

im a member of demonoid and torrentleech,

these however require a minimum ration of 0.4

that means if your share ratio drops below that digit you are booted from the system!

remember you must give in order to recieve!

hope this helps

Im assuming you just got a torrent file (few KBs). Than I agree, azareus or utorrent.
Get it a www.utorrent.com

When you install one of them a simple double click should do the trick.

PS. since its you first time... a very common problem is that people decide to give another name to the file that they are downloading, and not the one "suggested" one by the program. Nothing wrong with it except that sometimes the extension of the file gets lost so when you finish downloading, windows doesnt recognize what file format it is.

Like most people said, use Azureus or uTorrent, both decent programs.

Just remember to seed. Don't be a leecher.

Those guys are all right.  There are lots of programs and sites to use when downloading torrents.  Also, if you are new to torrents or even if you are a crafty veteran of the system, BE CAREFUL WHEN DOWNLOADING HBO MATERIAL.  Apparently, HBO uses the trackers in torrent files to see who is downloading their shows.  A friend of mine downloaded an episode of Entourage and got his internet shut down (after a full year of downloading other torrents).  HBO had sent his ISP a letter informing them that he was downloading illegally.  It was a pain to get it turned back on.  Besides this, happy downloading!
