i thought that too but everyones computer works fine. so Zidane24 judging on the eset screenshot i'm not really using them at the same time its just switching back and forth? lol man i was hoping that wasn't what it was doing.
One option you may have is run vmware server(free). I am running two Nic cards one for up and one for down while i am gaming. Come to find out that doesn't work. But I did discover that it does mainly connect to my Nic 2. If you can figure out which Nic your pc mainly uses then set your Vmware to use the other one. Set a shared folder can have your torrents connect to download to that folder on your machine. It may take up a little bit more space and ram but it may help get what your looking for.
To figure out which nic your pc uses more use wire shark. It shows your inbound Ip address. When your installing Vmware when it asks for hostname set it to that ip address.

I have used similar setups, just not for torrents. I'm trying t break away from them its like an addiction. It works very well for servers and vpn servers. If you set a static ip for the vm and set a specific port for the DHT, using your routers firewall you can forward that port to the vm. Then depending on your software firewall you should be able to restrict all access except for the vm to use that port (Dont hold me to this but I belive you can do that using bitdefender, but im not sure).
You can configure Utorrent to automaticly load torrents from certain folders, you can use a mapped network folder for that. Just share a file on the vm and map it on the physical pc. Then a similar setup for the downloads. Just sharred on the physical and mapped on the vm.
Vmware can be configured to run as a service and boot and take a snapshot of the running machine on shutdown. then when it boots again it loads the snapshot.
To connect to the vm you can use vm-server's web console, or your favorite remote desktop program. (I like RealVnc) but since you will be less likely to connect from any other machine just use the web console.

thanks for all the help. i was hoping not to have to go that route. virtual pc says that my computer isn't good enough to run xp mode however vmware workstation runs fine i just haven't installed it after upgrading. i've found a program called netlimiter 2 and i'm gonna try that out after i restart my pc but if that don't work then i'll just go with vmware. is there a difference between workstation and server?
Vmware Workstation costs money,
Vmware server is free.
