Refer this website for info about port forwarding and the use of port forwarding: portforward.com/help.htm.

In simple words, the router firewall limits connections (ips conneted) to the computer. If you forward a port you are making a firewall exception there. And that will let multiple ips connect to your system which is important in P2P and online gaming.

BTW. If you are connecting using Bridge mode the ports are automatically forwarded in utorrent.
