Download the torrent to your hd and launch it from there. Right click on the link and save the torrent to your hard-drive, then open the torrent that is in your hard-drive by double clicking on it.
No space left on device:
The client allocates the space needed to store the file on your HD, you get this error when you don't have enough space on your hard-drive for bittorrent to fully allocate the file.
When BitComet gets this error it doesn't say what the error is but instead displays a red X in the task list (mentioned
Sometimes bittorrent still runs in the background, and if you start more than one gui (the same torrent) it will give you permission denied, go to Task manager and close down all bt-gui processes.
Rejected by tracker / Your IP is not registered:
Your IP is not registered to use this tracker for this file Probably the tracker is overloaded, so the owner decide to only allow certain IPs to use the tracker
Problem connecting to tracker: HTTP Error -1:
Leave your torrent running in your client. The client will keep checking the tracker and it should resume eventually.
Problem connecting to tracker:
A lot of routes in your routing table (due to a misconfigured router, or misconfigured default route) Lots of stale connections in your connection table. Or a lot of data that is pending for sending or receiving on a current connection(s), which can't be sent or received for some reason (destination system dead or unreachable, for example). Opening too many sockets at the same time. Probably don't have enough free space on your hard drive.
Piece XXX failed hash check, re-downloading it:
Bittorent downloaded a wrong packet, so it's redownloading it, just it.
error tracker response error: invalid passkey (0-) in tracker:http://etc.
The torrent is from a private tracker that uses a passkey to identify the user (one assigned to each user). You need to register/login to the trackers website and download the torrent again. If you still get this error, check the site on how to reset your passkey (usually done in the profile section).
error tracker response error: unregisterd ip address in tracker:http://etc.
You're not logged in to the tracker - go to the trackers website and register or login.
Tracker Response Error: Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker.
Many trackers require the torrents to be authorized for use with the tracker. The torrent you're trying to use hasn't been submitted properly by the uploader, so the tracker is rejecting it. You'll have to find the files you're after elsewhere.
Note: Many of these error messages are not BitComet specific but relate to all BitTorrent clients.
