BT do in fact shape bandwidth for p2p use. Also I believe the BT connection devices need special configuration. Check the BT support pages on their website & check the details of your particular device. It may need port forwarding. Also recheck your Vista firewall settings. And make sure you don't have other active firewalls on your computer. Generally found in the control panel. Check your anti-spyware, etc. utilities to be sure none are blocking LW.
