Default choosing speed for up/downloading

your asked to choose modem or cable/dsl or t1 or t3 when you start using limewire in the uk adsl is the name for dsl and there are many speeds available for adsl eg 512kb is standard but now 2.2mb per second is becomeing normal for £17.99 a month with 1gb download limit im on 2.2mb per second with 20gb per month limit for £26.99 anyway my point is limewire needs to help users choose the speed to use you have no detail there at all and u say we must choose the right speed!!! i presume modem is for dial up users..you poor things!.well help us then. ive just searched via beingahuman.blogspot.com which has a google search bar on it and found t1 speed is 1.544mbps and t3 is 43mbps, seeing as adsl speeds vary from 512kb to 8mb if we select your dsl setting are we choosing the right thing?, how can limewire optimise our speeds of downloading or uploading as adsl sevices from different isps(internet service providers) vary so much? please help and fix this confusion. ive also found trying to stop uploaders difficult moving your slider to zero is imposible mine refuses to shoe zero it stays at 1.75kb so people upload of me at times when i dont want any uploaders , ithink ive solved this by changing number of users to allow to zero now..is this the only way to stop uploaders who dont share? also killing downloads often freezes limewire so its no longer showing anything moving such as what downloads im getting so at this point im forced to shutdown limewire and restart it...if you want people to pay for the pro version you first need to prove your capable of creating software thats free of bugs/doesnt freeze/crash/ is easy to use and is properly explained for new users in a sensible logical order step by step..just looking at the forums is offputting theres too many threads..create a user guide with full details on how to use limewire please just taking my need for help on choosing the speed as an example of the kinds of detail you need to provide at each step.anyway thanks for creating this software it is useful id just like improvements im a perfectionist! if limewire wants to be the king in 21st century it can be
