For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.BitTorrent is both the name of a protocol (rules on how to share the files over the internet), and a program (called the client) that actually does the downloading. the best (in my opinion anyway) client for BitTorrent is called Azureus. As for legitimate uses, you can download Open Office:
http://www.openoffice.org
with BitTorrent, which helps everyone at the same time. You can also download most of the GNU/Linux distro's with BitTorrent too.
There are many things available on file sharing which includes many open access files and videos, bitTorrents are often used by web sites to distribute things for free, whereas programs like Limewire on P2P usually are accessing files held on other peoples computers and it is these which are often illegal downloads and which might have bad stuff included and incidentally can often not be the file-movie-MP3 that it purports to be.
