One thing i found really helped my BT speeds, was allowing the ports in my firewall (zone alarm). I set my ports to a range between 50000 and 60000, then added that to my firewall.

Some torrents are just really slow, depending on how many seeds/peers there are. Try a few different trackers, and see if you get any better, before changing anything.
