again...it's me

I solve the problem with my torrent but now I have 1 question and 1 problem


Question

can someone explain to me what is RATIO?...I can see that it has something to do with the upload but I haven't really understand what it is exactly...

Problem

in the topics,where I can find the peers list, I see next to the users ports something like this

66.190.33.xxx(6881)


and SOMETHING like this

24.8.157.xxx(6881)

or like this

62.253.240.xxx(52000)


what is the difference?...I have opened the 6881 port, as UDP AND as TCP protocol...from my router AND from windows xp.
the red numbers are the ports that I must open?
I have read many articles about how torrents work and I haven't got the entire thing yet.all the articles were talking only about ports 6881-6889...
can someone help me with these?...

p.s. sorry about the many questions...
