using ssh to download torrent in a restricted domain

by dynamic_pravs . Updated 14 years, 10 months ago

hi everyone.m new to this site..so dont evaluate me as passive particiapnt.

My Question is:my college network has banned wi-fi for downloading torrents. m using torr as a proxy and i have made proxy settings in bittorent as well as firfox.
but i have heard from someone that ssh can be used to download torrent using software lyk putty in windows and becoming a ssh client..
i have installed putty and i have surfed net about how to use that but i got blurred idea.i m also using RHEL4 installed on vmware machine.tell me the way to use ssh on either of win7 or rhel
Adding that is there some methodology to download torrent without using proxy server?is it really possible with ssh?
