Azureus issues I cant figure out!!???!

    OK, I have been using Azureus fairly successfully for the last few months. I managed to open all the correct ports, my "NAT Test" was always OK, and I had green smiley men all the way with download speeds over 150kbs per torrent.

    I am now using Azureus 2.3.0.4 and having problems. The main problem is that my download speeds seem to have decreased, and now my "NAT Test" is showing "NAT error".

    I am certain that the correct port is open... I have checked and rechecked, and I am certain that I have Azureus configured correctly. The only thing I can think of is that I have installed some new software recently. Is this likely to mess with Azureus?

    Changes made over the last few weeks...
    Replaced Norton with AVG
    Installed "HijackThis"
    Installed "RootKitRevealer"

    I have tried https://www.grc.com/x/portprobe=11111 and the test on my chosen port returns as "stealth". What does mean? Is my port being hiddden somehow?

    My ISP is EsatBT broadband... are they doing something to block my ports to bittorrent? For the life of me I cant figure this out. I have tried uninstall/reinstall and nothing seems to work. Anyone any ideas?

    Did you change your PC's IP address on the network at all? Or is it using DHCP? These may account for the problems if you have granted access to the ports from a certin IPaddress.

    Nope, I didnt change anything. The NAT issues seem to have come from nowhere.

    Personally, I've never got optimal speed with Azureus. I find I always hit 200kb/s using bit tornado, though I understand its lack of Universal appeal as it doesnt have a regular interface where you can view all torrents.
