Does Windows Media Player handle mpegs?  It's a standard format and 
they opened in Quicktime for me.

If you're not familiar with .torrents, they're a way of sending 
things over the 'net such that the load is distributed--no one 
person's bandwidth gets killed, which is what it sounds like happened 
to the original host.  If you're downloading, you're also uploading 
to someone else.  More info on the standard (and the free software 
necessary to use it) here: http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/
