White Chamber download question

[Guest]

I have tried to download The White Chamber several time but just wind
up with a desktop file, thewhitechambersetup.exe, 24.1kb in size. I
have a cable connection so don't want to use the http site; I have
e-donkey taking all bittorrent links - what's going wrong? Can anyone
tell me how to get this game to download? Thanks.

That 24.1 kB file would be the torrent file, which contains the
information needed to download the game with a torrent client. (It
should be called thewhitechamberSETUP.exe.torrent but I suppose you
have file extensions hidden?) You say you use e-donkey for torrent
downloads. Then I assume you should be able to open this file with e-
donkey and download the setup program. I haven't used e-donkey, but
that's how simple it is with the official bittorrent client anyway.

Thank you, Rikard. I often wonder what this group would do without
you! I reinstalled BitTorrent and downloaded the game in 12 minutes.
Thanks, again, for all the help you have given over the years.
