You can if the BT client supports it and if the remote server supports it also. Some people don't do this because it's to slow and plus, not many people know how to put up or configured it.

I'm not sure if this will work for you but give it a try, it lets you use it for 7 days. I've never used it because I never needed to.

Sounds like the Admin's are blocking the ports that the BT is using. Have you tried to use different ports?

yea, i have tried to use different ports but all the ports i have tried (which were random ports on Utorrent) were all blocked. I dont know which ports can be opened

I haven't ever tried, so I don't know if it would even work, but would it be possible to set the client to use port 80 (HTTP) which would most DEF. be open on the firewall? Or maybe the firewall would block it, since it isn't HTTP traffic... not too sure on that one. I suppose you could try though.

I also tried to use the program that you recommended, but im still not getting any incoming connections. i think it will work for like regular downloads, but i dont think my Utorrent client supports it

The problem is, it's only a demo and most of the feature that would work are disable. But if I were you, I won't pay $100 for it just to see if it would work, I would maybe email them and ask though.

I use Azerus as my client and configure it to use prot 5190 which is the default AIM port. Works like a charm.
