I just succeeded in using blast! (a BitTorrent client) to download that
Lindsay Lohan clip. If any of you are having problems getting the clip, my suggestion is to do the following:
1. Download BitTorrent from one of the many sites that has it. I got my copy from
here.
2. Then download blast! from
here.
3. For good measure, download and read the
www.dessent.net/btfaq">BitTorrent FAQ. Pay attention especially to the section dealing with setting up your firewall properly...you do have a firewall, don't you? I recommend ZoneAlarm Pro (with Web Filtering, natch).
4. Install BitTorrent and blast!
5. [IMPORTANT] Close all browsers. To make doubly sure, you may want to reboot your machine.
I didn't do this step initially, and every time I tried to click on the link in the thread, it would give me an error message like "Cannot find
[name of .torrent file] in
[my Temporary Internet Files folder]". Which was annoying, because when I first came across this thread, I clicked on the link, and it showed me the .torrent file's contents. If I had known, I would have tried saving the file to my hard disk -- instead I rushed and did steps 1 through 4 above, and tried and tried to get the link to work, with no luck. It wasn't until I rebooted the machine, that I was able to continue you on to...
6. Now that you are back on, come back to the Forum, and to this thread, and click on the link to the .torrent file. Eventually, blast! should come up and download the .torrent file, and open it, and before you can say "D cup", it should open the connection to the video file and start downloading it.
I hope you are all able to grab this file. It is quite funny. I am happy to see that SNL has not lost its touch after all these years (although they have had their ups-and-downs as do all good TV shows).
Thanks once again to
Cheviot & MrHHH for making the video available, and to whoever captured it in the first place.
P.S. Of course, since I have DL the file, I have noticed that hits on my firewall have increased threefold. Could all these dudes be trying to snag a little
Lindsay Lohan action for themselves?
