LW isn't a good torrent client. Torrent support was added as an extra a couple of years ago but it's very, very basic - eg there aren't many torrent options, some private trackers may ban LW, share ratio doesn't show, no way of seeing number of torrent seeds, & AFAIK seeding has always been a problem.

I think you might be better off using a proper torrent client. I use uTorrent but I think most people here use Azureus (Vuze). Have a look at the threads below for more info, if you use the forum search then you'll find heaps more on the same subject
