uTorrent.
Better late than never :)

I advise enabled or forced outgoing data encryption and allow legacy 
incoming in the bittorrent settings.
Also download an ip block list from a reliable source and update it 
regularly. Name it ipfilter.dat and dump it in the same directory as the 
uTorrent executable, then enable ipfilter in advanced preferences. The 
logger window should show 'loaded blah, blah' if it worked.

Without these settings, poor rates are assured but I suppose it depends 
on your ISP. Without the ipfilter I got reams of torrent poisonings 
(bastards) that just end up slowing the whole thing to a crawl due to 
bad data chunks. Don't know how bad that is now, maybe it was just in 
the heyday of mediasentry...
