I've been using torrents no problem. It could be a problem with your firewall, in your torrent settings, try setting the ports to 50,000 - 60,000, then setting those ports up on your firewall. Also, have you made sure the actual torrent settings are ok? For example make sure the upstream is set to a decent rate, as the download rate is reliant on that.

Have you tried various trackers? The files you are trying to get just might be badly seeded, or well seeded by people with no upstream. I've noticed recently on some trackers, people are seeding, but have no free upstream, so you get 3 seeds, no peers, and still only 2k/sec. They must be using something like azureus. Also, have you tried other programs? I use BitTornado myself, i've not had a problem with it.
