I know I'm not firewalled, so why do I keep getting a big red "FIREWALLED" message?

What do they say at www.canyouseeme.org ?

I don't have a router, so I shouldn't be firewalled.

I tried to use that website, but it couldn't find the port.

You don't really need a router to be firewalled (you do need a computer).

Any way our tracker says you are using uTorrent and the port number it's using is 55507. I don't know if this is a random port or not (That means your port number is changing constantly. Go to preferences in uTorrent, go to connections and uncheck Randomize port (give it a free fixed 5-digit port number). Also make sure that your OS (windows/vista etc.) isn't blocking uTorrent. Go to Options > Preferences > Connection, check "Add µTorrent to Windows Firewall."

It's all set up that way, so I don't know what the problem is. I'm not very good at this stuff. :( Thanks anyway, though.
