Dunno where you are located, but I know in my area, my ISP is throttling BitTorrent..

Change your client to uTorrent, in the options, go to Network and enable the "Upnp" option.

Close/reopen. If you are still getting poor connection, try to change to port 1720, its a standard VOIP port for most Internet providers... You'll be limited to 100-120k/sec download... but 120k is better than 1-2k/sec

Good luck!

you could make sure the windows firewall isn't turned on

Well first of all does the, torrent you are downloading have a good amount of seeders? If your torrent has like 1 seed and 30 people are downloading off him, you can't expect great speeds. But try a client called uTorrent @ http://www.utorrent.com/. Its low on resources and offers great speeds. Also try different ports, make sure your firewall isnt interfering or anything like that.
