Hi guys, i have been playing around with Azureus today, it says it needs a port open from the internet to work, it has added itself as an exception in Windows Firewall, i didnt expect it to work anyway as i am using a Router (Netgear DG843G firewall). But it does get through.

Can anyone explain how it gets through? Or should it not supposed to be getting through?

Thanks!
 
Only really a security issue if you blindly click on "Yes" and "OK" when asked without actually reading what you are being asked to agree to.

Would have been ideal, problem was i didnt agree to anything to do this, quick install and thats it.
