bittornado has been working fine until recently. the torrents remain on the yellow status light. this happens with all torrents, not just a single one. bittorrent is properly routed through my firewall though, i've rechecked many times. ironically, it happend after i switched my computer into a new case with a stronger powersupply (irrelevant, i know), nothing else changed though. any ideas?

Here are some suggestions.. dunno which ones u tried already

1. make sure Windows Firewall is turned off (unless ur using Service pack2, u can unblock BT)
2. Bt client is set on the proper ports 6xxx-6999 (xxx numbers have to be at most 881 such as 6785-6999)
3. Make sure that the ports are forwarded on YOUR computer's ip. If something has changed it is possibly your computer's IP on the router. For example, your you might have forwared the ports on 192.168.1.2... but now it has changed to 192.168.1.5. Which means the ports are forwarded on the wrong computer.
