If you are firewalled you can still download and upload. It's just you can only download and upload to non-firewalled users.

What show did you download at TTD? Did you join the torrent when it was initially seeded or did you come in at the end of its life. That could be the reason why you didn't upload to anybody... because nobody was there to upload to.

I'd recommend finding a new torrent where there are few seeders but many leechers. You'll then be able to upload.

If you want to fix the 'firewall' issue, you will need to log into your Linksys router/modem and forward the port used in uTorrent. Instructions can be found at :
