Here's what happens, maybe you have experienced it.

Uploads are set to 5 slots. Someone connects to upload a file. At first, their speed is normal, consistent with the other 4 slots. Then, it starts slowing down. Eventually it gets to zero. Now, instead of dropping off, their copy of LimeWire makes another connection for the same file. Starts okay, then slows down to zero.
Now, I sometimes leave it on overnight. I can get up, and when I check it in the morning, this user has taken all the slots, they are all at zero speed, and no one else can connect.

Maybe it's their ISP, maybe it's a bad Windows
communication package, whatever. How do I keep that from happening, if the program cannot adjust on its own? Seems like a bug to me, but it spoils it for other users who have a good connection and functional equipment.


Anybody been able to eliminate this problem?
