Pretty much correct.

If you're still port forwarded but not running uTorrent, your computer will get incoming BitTorrent protocol packets...respond "I don't understand what you're saying, goodbye!"...and that's pretty much the end of it. Or it may not respond at all, depending on what firewall software you have and how windows networking is set up.

You can't prevent peers/seeds from retrying your computer's internet ip after you close uTorrent...and even if that just hits your modem and dies there (instead of dying at your router or computer)...it's already used up a tiny amount of your download bandwidth. This might become a problem if there were 1000's doing this...per second. :P
