    You need much more experience and research. We cannot do that for you. Google for 'BitTorrent Specification'. You will need a bit more than one socket... – Martin James Jul 21 '12 at 05:06
  • Yes i know will need much more research. And i am prepared to do that. Don't worry i would never ask anyone to do that for me :D – Tanmay Jul 21 '12 at 05:55
