Note to people I'm editing this so I can better solve this problem
Version 1.0 Completed.
[/b]Version 1.1: Fixed Spelling mistakes
[/b]Version 1.2: Added Services picture and WOW program malfunction.
Problem: Bitcomet & Peerguardian refuse to connect. So therefore I cannot download torrents or get updates for PeerGurdian.
What could of let to the problem. Possible things.
1. ISP might of lowered my Bandwidth and ip banned P2P Programs/Bittorent Protocols.
This doesn't seem the case as Limewire works great and I can still download great via HTTP.
2.Me following my dumb a** friends advice and doing the following things.
Advanced Settings : see Below
Go to Start > Control Panel > Admin Tools > services
Double-click on the unwanted service to get the options for it
Click "STOP" to stop it if it is running
Change the start-up type from Automatic/Manual to DISABLED
The Following Services May Be Disabled :

3. I am using a 2Wire 1800 Router because I share internet connection with my father. I have heard when using too many incoming/outgoing connections Bitcomet will not allow anymore.
Most notably the problem is #2
Things I did after I realized the problem.
1. Uninstalled and went from Bitcomet version 7.3 to the newest ones available 7.7
2. Tried turning all the services back via how I first turned them off.
Currently no Windows service is disabled as most are Automatic and Manual.
However via running MSCONFIG and looking at my Services Window. These programs are all services that listed being OFF
Note I couldn't copy and paste it so I kept scrolling down and doing screenshot ;) These were the only services listed as Off. As it read.
Here are the pictures via Control Panel-> Admin Tools-> Services
Things
I am connected on DHT it reads "DHT Connected Node. 1366
