Can't Connect to Peers/Seeds

So after attempting to troubleshoot this myself for an incredibly long time, I've come to the conclusion that I need some help. Although I'm using uTorrent, I also encountered this problem with Halite.

Some info:

ISP -- Comcast
Router -- Dynex DX-WGRTR
Modem -- D-Link DCM-202
OS -- Vista

Every torrent I've tried on both private and public trackers never detects any peers or seeds. I'm on a static IP (I've tried multiple ones) and port checker says I'm OK. UPnP is off. I'm not using a software firewall. There's no traces of any of the trackers I use in my hosts file. I'm able to ping my router just fine. Really, the only discrepancy I've been able to find is that a tracert on my router times out. My two roommates using the same router are able to use BT just fine and have never encountered any problems.

And this connectivity issue seemingly came out of nowhere, as I was using uTorrent just fine only a few days ago. Anybody got any suggestions?

Re: Can't Connect to Peers/Seeds

If your roommates can use BT, chances are the problem's on your computer.
What software firewall/s are you using?
(...including ones found in antivirus/security products!)

No software firewalls.  I'm using Kaspersky Internet Security, but the firewall is disabled.  No Windows firewall, either.

That firewall may require a complete uninstall to prevent it from interfering with uTorrent.
