Default ZERO Traffic, what's wrong?

I've been a lurker for a few months now and just ran into a situation I can't find a solution for so I figured it was time to create an account and post my first thread.

I use uTorrent, I have the latest install with the encryption settings set to forced (tried Enabled first though) and I have it set to pick a random port each time uTorrent starts, all on a Windows XP system with Comcast as my ISP.

Recently, like in the last 2-3 weeks I've not been able to DL anything over bitTorrent. I use either Demonoid or ISOhunt to find the torrents. When I begin the Download I see a few peers and a few seeds right away. The torrent I am DL'ing has thousands of each, it's a popular download. But after a few seconds the Seeds change to 0 and the Peers change to 0. I get nothing at all. Is there anyone that has experienced this? Is it a uTorrent issue or is this something Comcast may be doing?

What can I do to get this fixed? The only other thought that I have had was to uninstall uTorrent and get it reinstalled thinking that the program itself may be the problem.

Thanks for any ideas you all have, it's much appreciated!
