few minutes after i start up kazaa(lite) it starts to upload data
from my computer with a dazzling speed i'v never seen before
on my computer, MB's p/sec. mostly about nearly 3GB.
then it stops. what is this? my kazaatraffic window says i'm only
uploading some files with 1-9KB p/sec. i dont like this at all.
can anyone tell me what's happening or how i can prevent
this? i like to share files but this is something else. this really
looks bad.

I was trying to find the forum/website that I heard about this, but no luck.. I had heard that ZoneAlarm misreports the outgoing traffic when used with Kazaa. Obviously you can't be uploading at megabytes per second, so I wouldn't worry about it.

I'll continue to look for the reference that talked about this.
