    Red - number of seeders
    Yellow - number of leechers

    2534 - total number of available seeders, 33 - number of seeders you're connected to
    2085 - total number of leechers, 1 - number of leechers connected to you

    Seeders are the peers who have completed downloading the file 100%
    Others who haven't they called Leechers.
    Both of them are Peers.

    which torrent to download:
    for me, usually the one that has more than 5 seeders and any number of leechers, and the speed depends of the peers, some times one peer gives you your maximum speed. some other times many peers give you 2k.

    dl speed = unlimited & ul speed = 1kb/s no problem :)

    but you have to port forward if you are using a router.

    at the moment you have a problem with ur network.. look at Yellow color Exclamation sign near the Download Upload Rates on status bar

    for ethical reasons, no its not good to set the upload speed to 1kbps. You're downloading from others just like you so share back. If you have a 512k ADSL, set the up speed to like 10kbps so that you actually give something back to the torrents instead of being a selfish bastard.
    Depending on the tracker, increasing the upload speed can increase your download speed as well.
