RE: Why is bitorent so slow?
Firewalls are almost the painful problem, check your program for the ports it uses. By default Azureus use the port 6881, BitTornado and some other bitorrent clients use a random port between 10000-60000 or something like that just as vincerooney said. Keep in mind you have to enable the ports in Windows Firewall (iof you have it enalbed) and your router (if you have one and is enabled).
The other main problem has been discused in the above posts so I'll just add it to the list: Lot of leechers and few seeders.
