Get Process Explorer from sysinternals.com, run it, Ctrl+D (to show the lower DLL pane), select the µTorrent process from the list, Ctrl+S (and save the list somewhere you'll find easily -- like the Desktop), then post the contents of the saved process list in the .txt file here.

Uh, before you go ahead and do that, make sure you're not downloading the file to a path that's too long -- Windows has a path length limit of 255 characters. Basically, try saving the file to a place closer to the drive root, like C:\.

Comodo I can recommend without too much hesitation. It's free, but very powerful (maybe too powerful for the casual end user?). It's sometimes annoying to set things up properly with Comodo, but at the least, I've detailed a set of firewall rules here that worked well for me when I used Comodo.

Outpost has been a mixed bag. It used to be good, but increasingly, I've been seeing many users complain about the occasional problems with it. YMMV with that one, I suppose.
