I have none of both.. No Firewall no AV. Never used them. Just a online virus checker.
Works for me.

just a matter of time before you got fucked with no vaseline

very general link. I cant figure out how to config my firewall from that.

O.K.... from what i get i just need to know the bittorrent Port then I add it to the firewall entries. how do i check the bittorrent PORT number?

@alpha
what kind of firewall do you have

@Capitao70s
ports are 6881-6889 for ittorrent

[Capitao70s]

In the client window when i click on "Prefs" it says that the port range is 6881 to 6999 (not 6889). is that wrong? I didn&#39;t chage anything. So does it means that i can just add any Port number between these numbers and it&#39;s gone work fine? or do i need a specific number?

I&#39;ve come to relize that those behind routers may be better of using Shareaza BT client, it clearly seems to have less issues and IS faster since it dosen&#39;t, though I&#39;m still not sure why...

same problem here, i dont know firewall i have either. but since i get the yellow light and not so good speeds i guess i must have some sort of firewall.
any ideas on how to figure out ones firewalls?

I tweaked away and have yet to get that yllow light to fk off, thats why I use Shareaza now...

Put your router in half bridge mode (bypass the router) and use a software firewall that what i did and now get the green light.
