Uttorent or Bitcomet will be fine for downlaoding these - do not load any
extra antivirus software as this will interfere with the virus software (I
assume) you already have intalled. If you want to be really safe online and
keep your windows partition - then download and install Linux ubuntu here :

http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop

its very easy to install and at least as safe as OSX (very few viruse for
linux). This will allow you to choose whether to boot windows or Linux at
the startup and you can easily exchange files between ubuntu and windows (I
try to do most internet stuff on linux)

My second question is that of bittorrent downloads. I?ve generally avoid
