Sygate Personal Firewall Problem

Sygate Personal Firewall conflicting with Utorrent.

The USB port to which my WiFi dongle is connected to was not showing the device. I connected my bluetooth dongle, my printer and my gamepad to that port to see if it is working or not. They were all working. So I swapped the dongle's and gamepad's usb ports. <- Problem 1 solved (God knows what the problem was though)

Sygate Personal Firewall which was okay till yesterday began crashing right after booting today. I couldn't even start it manually. So I uninstalled it and restarted the machine. Cleaned the registry with CCleaner. Downloaded a newer version of it from FileHippo and installed it. After restarting I set it up like this:

Application layer ** -> Allow
NDIS User mode I/O driver -> Ask
NT Kernel & System -> Block It
LSA Shell -> Block it
Generic Host*** -> Allow
avast! web scanner -> Allow
avast! e-mail scanner service -> Allow
Utorrent -> Allow

But, the problem is that all trackers are giving the error of 'offline-timed out'

Can someone tell me how to set it up for Utorrent. I remember I had used the same settings before and they used to work fine till yesterday night.

Also is bakabt working for you guys?

Please Help!
 
There was a never a port issue in SPF before but I'll check it out (Question where is the port option). This is why I used to love Comodo but unfortunately it introduced a windows logon screen.

I switched to 1.8.4 from 2.0 beta from 1.8.3 just now. Apparently il*v*torrents refused to work with 2.0.

bakabt is still not working. But, I am still getting offline for a lot of other trackers. Some trackers show working for a few seconds before going offline again. I really can't blame it on Airtel or anyone else because I am having a lousy day right from the start.
