    torrents are get into our pc's through ports... if nanasala pots had installed hardware or software firewall it will block ports.. then u cant get torrents... try to open port in firewall... i think that it must be blocked by a firewall.

    my firewall is switched off & we are connecting to a proxy server !!!

    The problem is the proxy server. Most bit-torrent clients don't support downloading through a proxy server. Try Azureus.

    Damn! I can't help further, because I haven't been in the situation before. I know a guy who got Azureus working in out Uni computer lab which is connected through a proxy server. Not sure if he'll come online today though.
