hey dude, this is kinda off topic, in this all topic section of forum... however i will try to answer.. do you have any other firewalls??
You prob have your Windows firewall on :o

start->run->services.msc

I'm really confused about the whole yellow light thing. Mine is always on. I have disabled the XP built in firewall. I have also managed to reach the max for my connection (although this has only happened once) with the yellow light showing. I think it might be (in my case) to do with the ports BT uses but its hard to figure. I can still upload /download it just goes really slow :(
I am getting the yellow now. I just started using the anonx proxy and I believe it is because of that. But I am having no problems connecting to people as far as I can see.Quote:

TD
or dont use the shadow experimental and u get no lights

If you guys use a router, port forwarding should solve the 'Yellow' light issue. If so check what router you have either off manual or website. You have a web addy that enables you to configure your router. Learn about Bittorrent settings from
