Once you are uploading the torrent, you become a leecher. Your Bittorrent client will show you how much of the torrent is uploaded/downloaded. Obviously, your downloads will complete first, and then if you wish you could keep uploading the rest of the file. Once the upload is complete, you become a 'seeder', so other people can download from you.

Though, you may also be talking about uploading your own torrent to a torrent listing website. For that, visit any popular torrent search engine which allows you to upload (e.g. isohunt.com, mininova.com etc.)

You don't type it at all. Torrent files, as far as I know, cannot be passworded. The files inside a torrent though, can be passworded using programs such as WinRaR. You can download and use WinRar for free, and then you right-click on your folder, click 'add to (foldername).rar' and it will create a .rar folder for you which can then be passworded.
