bittorrent slow

[Knute Johnson]

I could sure use some suggestions to improve my Bittorrent 
performance.  I have 9881-9889 forwarded in my router.  My ISP 
throttles the high ports but only to 256kbit.  I'm running Bittorrent 
4.4.1 on a WinXP machine and I'm only getting 10KB/sec up and around 
14KB/sec down.  It has been downloading the bordeaux-binary-i386 for 
two days now and still has 13 hours to go.  When I first started it 
on Monday it was running about twice as fast but after a few hours 
slowed to what it is doing now.
