Its not a good idea to have two software firewalls

Since you already have Norton AV and Firewall you should completely remove ZoneAlarm

Posts like that always kill me. Running two software firewalls at once is never a good idea. Except when you're using Black Ice. But thats a whole different discussion.

Zonealarm hasn't been a good firewall in awhile. Kerio just tested as good as ZA for normal use and it doesn't do all the bad/evil crap ZA does. So Kerio is probably the best Freeware firewall around.

But I'm still sticking with McAfee 'cause its awesome. B)

It's apparent that BC's little browserlet can't connect to the interent, but that's no loss, and many people don't use it at all. You can do all of the searching with your normal browser, bookmark sites, all of which you already know how to do.

So do that instead, use your regular browser to download torrents and save them to disk (which is a good idea anyway), then see if BC is able to connect to the tracker and to peers.
