My favorite BT client is Azureus, which has nice graphics and GUI

By default, however, you really should choose a different port.
I use something like 36881-36889 or something like that.
The reason is that many ISP's are starting to traffic shape 6881-6889.
You only normally need to open one port, so what I do is that I set my
firewall such that it maps the ports to local DHCP addresses.
ie.
192.168.1.101 -> 36881
192.168.1.102 -> 36882
192.168.1.103 -> 36883
etc.
That way I don't have to reconfigure the firewall just because my
computer picked up a different DHCP address today.
