I just updated to LimeWire Pro 4.9.11 form 4.8.1. However, after I installed the update, LimeWire 4.9.11 seems to be consuming high amount of bandwidth.

I am just using a 56K connection. And whenever I start LimeWire 4.9.11, and connects to Turbo-Charged connection, it utilized almost all of my internet bandwidth. That is, Limewire 4.9.11 is running at 4.0 to 5.0KB/s EVEN THERE'S NO DOWNLOADS RUNNING ON LIMEWIRE. Meaning, as long as LimeWire is open and EVEN THERE'S NO DOWNLOADS RUNNING, my Internet surfing will suffer with slow connection.

Please take note that this only happened AFTER I updated from 4.8.1 which don't suffer with the problem.

What do you think could be the issue and could this be fixed?
