Aww. I'm confused there.
(sorry, for not being specific), did you stopped ALL other traffic during the tests?
My confusion lies within your use of kbps as thats is different from kBps...
kbps = kilo bit per second
kBps = kilo Byte per second
1 kBps = 8 kbps
So, Im assuming that in 60.40kbps/7.55kbps the 7.55 is kBps.
but then, thats very low. Again, did you stopped all other traffic in and out during the test?
If not, please test again w/o any other traffic.

No problem mate.
Without any doubt your actual speeds are:
47 kB/s down
12.5 kB/s up
And thhose are the speeds which you should reach with your client.
Meaning that the sum of all your downloads should equal between 45 and 50 kB.
There are few settings you must do in uTorrent (I'll try to be complete there...)
1. Options > Preferences > Connections > Bandwith Limiting > Max Global U/L > change that to 10(as your max U/L speed is 12.5 only)
2. Options > Preferences > Connections > Enable UPnP port mapping disabled (for now!)
3. Options > Preferences > Connections > Add uTorrent to Windows Firewall Exceptions > enabled
4. Options > Preferences > BitTorent > Enable DHT Network > DISABLED!
5. Options > Preferences > BitTorent > Enable DHT for new torrents > DISABLED!
5. Options > Preferences > BitTorent > Protocol Encryption > enabled
6. Options > Preferences > BitTorent > Allow Incoming Legacy connections > enabled.
What software firewall and AV are you using? Is Windows Firewall running?
Also, you need to adjust your "halfopen connections", but can't remember where to get that utility to change it for you.

OK. I did a bit research on VET and E-trust. Both CA products. Having a solid reputation, being in the market as almost as long M$ is around.
Only, I have no clue if CA is BT friendly.
Let me help you by informing what must be avoided: Norton suite, Zone Alarm suite, amongst others. On the other hand Norton AV is not that bad, but still not recommended.
I'm using Kerio Personal Firewall and BitDefender AV.
My suggestion is to experiment a bit. Windows Firewall is just crap, I even removed it completely from my system.
When doing the portforwarding, be sure to follow the complete procedure, including the correct router brand/model.
In your router configuration disable DMZ totally.
Some more info that might be usefull to you:

LMAO, a happy aussie.
SmartFTP is just one of several you can choose from.
Take a look @ http://www.filehippo.com/, over there you have several ones to choose from. Once you made up your mind which suits you best, you can get a full version from a BT site.

Sorry mate. I don't have any experience (yet) with converting. Thus, I'm not the right person to ask what will do the best job. However, somebody else might tell ya.
Still, I can give ya some links, which might be helpfull.
