    people downloading off of me

    alright, when a person is downloading off of me, the person will get like 9 Kb and then the connection will close. Then that same person will come back get about 9 or so Kb of the same song and then the connection will close again. This continues to happen. And not with just one person, or any particular file. It happens with a lot of people, and a lot of my files. I don't do anything, the connection closes itself. I have DSL and am running WinXP. I have the 1.05 version too. I've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Is the a natural thing? If not, how can I fix this?

    Do you have any other P2P programs running? If you can only upload .17KB a second, it might figure it would be better off limiting the file chunks.

    I'm probably wrong...

    I would recomend editing the picture to NOT show the files you are downloading. Just a FYI.

    Happens to me also. Something similar happens with Kazaa, but not as often.This does not happen with Ares. Figure out what is different about Ares and you will have it!:fire I'm running Windows 2000 on a 56k dial-up, which is a little different than your set-up, so the problem isn;t there.

    Since its inception almost 30 years ago, the internet has been transformed from a primitive device for sharing thoughts and ideas, into a massive network where people pay to connect and read advertisements they don't want, while calling each other "asshats".
