Good points. I'm on a mac, so I can't help with the Windows setup. It's beginning to sound like downloading one's own files isn't supported.

Just to confirm, can you accept incoming connections? The Options->Bug Reports->View example should have a line that says Accept Incoming this session=True. If it says false, then there is a block somewhere.

Lastly, if you'd like me to check: PM me a magnet of one of your unique files, and I'll try if you want (or I can send you a magnet of one of mine if you prefer).

cheers
