You nailed it.

A torrent can only seed if peers are asking for it.  If no one wants the files, there's no one to give em to ;)

In some cases, people could have their settings messed up which stops them from seeding, but you're seeding other files, so that isn't it.

It could be a tracker problem too... if that particular torrent is on a different tracker, it may be down.

Basically though, don't worry about it.  It's likely just no one is requesting the files right now.  No problem.

Azerus is a purely Java based program.

Java is having some major problems playing well with others since the last release.  The most notable problem is that Java + video overlays results in the resolution of the video card resetting to some god awfully ultra-low res setting,  at least on Nvidia cards.

I swear it bumps it down to like 240x120.

Avoid apps coded in Java until Sun does some bug fixing.

If a file is finished it's ready to seed.  However, if your network settings only allow 2 connections then you will only seed 2 files.  So you need to go through the network settings to see how many connections you are allowing, how many downloads/how many uploads, etc.
