Torrent download blocked?

Try downloading something else via torrent. See if that works. For example, all Relic Game Patches are distributed via torrent from their website. See if that will DL. If not, then it looks like your ISP has killed ALL torrent traffic. I would then give them a ring, and a rather large piece of my mind - since DL'ing patches and stuff like GWX are legitimate uses of torrents.

Doubtful that it would be anything like a firewall/router. Torrents usually come thru such fine since your using a client that goes out to find them - the internal action opens the gate.

My money is on the ISP.
