Your screencaps are gorgeous! Nicholas is so pretty!
I don't know if this will help you, but if you google, or check out the megafaq at d-addicts, they have tricks for improving your connectivity using BT - I know that last summer I was having massive problems dling and when I switched to Azureus and started changing my ports, my connectivity improved hugely - now I can pull down most currently airing eps (which have lots of seeders) in anything from 1-5 hours. It usually starts slow but then picks up dramatically after 15 or 20 minutes. A lot of ISPs have things in place to block our connectivity for things like BT, which is why changing ports has such an effect.
I'm not techie at all, but I know that at least doing this has helped me a lot.
I'm also wondering if there is something wrong with your internet connection if your dls of split files aren't joining correctly - this can happen when the entire file isn't present for some reason - as in each piece maybe didn't dl fully or correctly? I'm assuming that you've tried to join the same split files a couple times to make sure that it's the files that are faulty and not the program? I suppose it's also possible that your joining program has become corrupted, but I'm taking wild guesses at all this.
