Azureus
 

whats up, I've download and installed the newest version of Azureus on FC4, i opened the ports and even disabled my firewall, i cannot get Azureus to download anything... including the updates it just sits there and says downloading but doesn't download a thing, if i leave it overnight Azureus will eventually close... any ideas? this is kind of agitating... thanks

You have probably registered a so-called "NAT error". If you go to the Tools menu and click on the NAT/Firewall test (or is it configuration ?) option. This will bring up an interface with which to test your connections. To be honest, after having gone through all the rigamarole you describe, I still have not been able to get Azureus to work, so it could be my ISP blocking the BitTorrent port(s), but I don't know for sure.

Sorry :(

Or it may be like the Torrent itself is a weak one.

Try downloading through some high traffic Torrent.
For example, try downloading an ISO image from http://cdimage.debian.org using a Torrent.

Do you still don't see anything being downloaded?
