OK - my resistence is dissipating - but just to completely put me out of my misery - why can I succesfully download via a BS ultrapeer in shareaza but never in LW - and - still not entirely convinced about 'good' ultrapeers eventually settling in for a respectable time - instead what I find is that the volatility actually increases and the only solution is to exit LW and open up again to take advantage of the burst of connections I start with that then diminish to the point of complete disappearance

still cheery: bad_vlad
