Hmmm...never heard of Burst!, but I know slash is using Azureus ( I don't like it because it's java based and restricted my max upload to 30 instead of 45kb/s. I use bittornado, try re-launching the downloads you selected. I restarted both to see if if you can get connected.

actually you are using bittornado which is a project kind of sole-core, when butst has several cores. and its funny. i have azureus seeding and burst downloading with shadow's protocol on, and this guy tribaldj whos been trying to dl file number 10 saeed ... for about 6 hours before, he GETS UNCHOKED! i asssume he was choking cause i'm connectable i connect to myself. anywayz i did it later again. first opened burst and started download of the file in it from like scratch (empty) using bittorent 3.4.2 protocol which appeared to be same with that guys protocol. so they could connect but before i had to wait and not let my burst get anything from my azureus (who could not connect with tribaldj's burst for some reason, maybe his isp is blicking or azureus sucks), so that it would wait for tribaldj to initiate uploading session with me, giving me something he already had. so basically he can only himself connect what means he's unconnectable. or so. still now my burst is getting file from azureus and giving it to tribal dj at 40kb/s.

yeah i forgot in first part i changed to bittorent 3.4.2 and forgot about it, cause shadow's 5.7.6 (or so) didnt do the trick.

so to tribaldj AND EVERYONE OUT THERE reading this - refer to faq and do following
- change your clients port to something over 20000
- try using more widely-spread porograms like bittornado or azureus, which will make them bittorent protocols more compatible i guess
- personally for tribaldj - try downloading your next torrent with superseed profile in burst which is more capable then 'normal download' you have now.
