I resolved the problem btw - it was due to user incompetence!
With all the recent DNS problems with NTL I had enabled a transparent cache in the proxy server settings and "forgot" it was there. Having a proxy server set up was causing incoming BitTorrent connections to be refused. I had read that some ISPs were blocking ports used in some P2P programs so I jumped the gun and wrongly assumed poor'ol NTL was doing this!
Thanks for all the help.
