Where can I find a fansub?

(Q: What is a “fansub”? A: A fansub is a video tape that is an illegal copy of a foreign-language video tape or LD or Video-CD or other medium, onto which subtitles (superimposed text translations of the dialog, written text, or song lyrics) were applied, based on a script that has been translated (with varying degrees of accuracy) by fans (read: non-professionals) for the purpose of making a film available to fans before any commercial effort to release that feature in their country is underway. Context: fans of popular anime are often impatient with the delays between the Japanese release of their favorite titles and the commercial release.) We would highly recommend that you do not use or distribute fan-subtitled versions of this or any other Studio Ghibli film scheduled for release by Disney, Miramax, or Buena Vista Home Entertainment.
