Question How do you know if you are a "leaf" or an "ultrapeer"?

I have looked throught the posts on the Ultrapeer and haven't seen anything that addresses this. Granted it was not an exhaustive search and nobody said I was smarter than a bag of hammers. I have been using LW v1.7 with no problems. I have just upgraded to LM v2.0.4. I understand what an ultrapeer is but how do I know if I am am an ultrapeer or a leaf (I have an ADSL). Also on v1.7 I could see how many users, files and total Bytes that were available.. All I show now is the number of files I am sharing and the banner ad (btw: I don't mind the ad). I am currently connected to 8 hosts on the ultrapeer protocol and I have [client] next to "Keep approximately _ connections up". As with others, I have also noticed that I do not get the same amount of returns on searches as I did with v1.7.

Any insight would be appreciated.
