| 722459 | 2008-11-24 03:39:00 | Ahhh.. is limewire a sharing one? My son uses that. Ah, there’s the reason where all your bandwidth went…. You should tell your son to stop using limewire..... |

You don't have to ban it entirely, just go into the settings and turn uploads off. I had the same thing for a while. Go to tools, uploads, slots, and choose 0. Or a small number if you still want to share. Also, in the basic setting, I'd set the slider to the lowest possible setting. |

| 722462 | 2008-11-24 04:04:00 | Ok.. thanks so much guys... I have been into lime wire and done what you suggest. Bandwidth set at lowest setting of 1.75KB's Uploads per person 1 Max upload slots 1 (it was 20) And I've unchecked the box for connecting on start-up. Hopefully that should do it!! Have to wait till my new allowance of Gigs starts on 3rd Dec! I may be back!! |
