use iptables to block incoming/outgoing port

"Randomize port each start makes BitTorrent select a random port between 1000 and 65000 to use at startup. Note that this option might conflict with your port forwarding settings, so if you manually open ports in your router and firewall, it's best to leave this option disabled."
