Port forwarding / McAfee firewall issue

[Yakeed]

So I've been searching for hours on topic similar to this, but nothing seems to do the trick.

I hadn't used uTorrent for a few months, and when trying to use it the other day, 2 torrent appeared to be stuck on 'Connecting to peers'.

I'm guessing it's something to do with my firewall, in which case McAfee's firewall. Like I said, I've done a lot of searching on how to fix whatever is going on, but with no luck.

If any other information is needed to better help troubleshoot this issue, please let me know.

All my settings appear to be green, yet the problem still persists.

Well that particular job isn't going anywhere soon.

Zero seeds from trackers, an absolute maximum of two peers (it they still exist). Don't hold your breath waiting for the first piece to start.

Excuse me? I'm not an expert like you appear to be. Can I get some sort of support like I requested when posting here?

That torrent is kind of dead. Your only option is to wait until when/if someone start seeding.

Can I get some sort of support like I requested when posting here?

The support here is for problems with, or queries about the actual uTorrent client, the forums do not exist to teach you all about BitTorrenting.

There is a uTorrent Owners Manual included with every Windows client that explains what the terms mean and what you NEED to know.

A whole set of guides on this very site where time has already been taken to explain things for users.

And there are a LOT of resources on the internet, Such as:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_BitTorrent_terms

BUT stay WELL AWAY from YouTube "How to speed up uTorrent" videos.
