 | What about throttled users? Hmmm. This is interesting. But it will negatively affect torrent users who are throttled by their ISPs. With the upload capped at 3KB/s, hard to send anything. |

With the upload capped at 3KB/s, hard to send anything. with upload capped at "3KB/s" you shouldn't be thinking about ANY type of file transfers at all. you should be thinking about moving to another state where ISP are not so greedy. -- [Sig removed by Administrator: Signature can not exceed 20GB] |

Use encryption, if thats your real upload dont expect more than 300kbitps download since you dont have enough bandwidth for more than 300kbitps of TCP ACKs. Either your dialup or Cellular user, get broadband or deal with it. |

 | No, no. You see, I have 5000/800 cable internet. It is that in bit torrent my upload refuses to go higher than 3KBps (25kbit). I can still download at 200KBps but not upload. And this is with encryption.
So this new bit torrent client does put put throttled users like me at a disadvantage. |
