Bit torrent and their ports

[Gromit]

Please people. Dont use standard BT ports. They are banned somewhere or throttled elsewhere. Help share these good programs to people who havent the luxary of BBC in their country. Go in and change your listening port in your BT client to somewhere between 1 and 65500 avoiding ports already used like 80 (http) and standard BT between 6000 and 8000.I'm running somewhere in the 12000 region. Works great!

Also. ABC and Bitcomet don't use standard ports. It mostly goes to people who use Azureus and original BT client.

whats wrong with using port 80? if you use port 80 people can connect to you even behind university firewalls so why not?
