Yes, I opened up the range of ports 6881 thru 6999 on my router for
both TCP and UDP since I don't know what protocol they are using and
all four torrents are going now.  The btlaunchmany program does
display a lot of information though it looks kinda cryptic.  I see the
spd: which must be speeds and I also see accumulated counts in MB.
What I don't know yet, is there are always two numbers one before and
the other after a slash character.  I'll bet one is upload and the
other is down.  Now to figure out which is which.  I noticed this
morening whild attempting to use btdownloadcurses that the uploads
were always exceeding downloads.  I don't know how that would be
possible if I don't have that data available if ya know what I mean.
I thought the file had to be already on your computer before it could
be shared.
