A few months ago Azureus gave me a NAT error problem which I fixed by going into my router and configuring it so it allowed a port allowing Azureus to function just fine. Now since yesterday Azureus is giving me all these firewalled problems that I cannot figure out. I have deactivated all my firewalls and it still doesnt work. At the bottom of the Azureus program this is what it shows. (yellow) Ratio (red) Firewalled (yellow) DHT firewalled. My windows XP firewall is also shut down and the firewall i am currently using is givin to me by my ISP which is called Adelphia Freedom which I have shut down and my Azureus still says im firewalled. Can someone help me.

Why do people fly w/o firewalls?

I'll tell you.

Assuming you're behind a router and you've changed the default password...you're as safe as you're going to be on a windoze system.

Anyone who is able to tunnel through the router would be just as able to tunnel through your fancy firewall, and if you're like me you don't let random, useless software steal cycles from your cpu...it's too busy doing other things.

I very much wish that people would understand that there is NO FIREWALL on the market that, if simply installed and ignored, will protect you from anyone who seriously wants access to what you have. Even the best unix based software firewalls require significant setup and maintainence.

Firewalls aren't like antivirus's, AND, because software firewalls filter all incoming packets, they degrade network performance.

I have personally never used any windows based firewall other than blackICE that was anything more than a hinderance and a waste of time. A big secret in the software world is that if the company took the time to make it really pretty with nice colors and crap, that their marketing strategy is like fishing lures...they catch your eye and get you to buy them. The ugly software is usually the best, because it's built for a purpose, not to be oogled.

Now, that's just my 2 cents. If you're operating a non-secured wireless network, then sure, run a firewall, but...your network is still going to get piggybacked. /shrug.
