Can someone tell me hos Azureus on a Windows computer on my LAN might 
affect the amount of data downloaded via my ISP?

My son-in-law finally admitted that his son had installed Azureus on his 
computer while visiting a couple weeks ago.  WE have a limited amount of 
data allowed by Wildblue, 17 gigs in a 30 day period and it is becoming 
a panic situation with less than 2 gigs before we hit the limit and they 
take action!

Can Azureus be the cause of the excessive traffic or am I looking in the 
wrong place.  I closed the bittorrent port in the router months ago and 
that should still be closed ...

Presently we have his computer shut down.  There's no telling what he's 
got on it but my daughter is threatening to put him back on dial-up!  I 
can see a period of strife on the horizon.
