How about a slider that allows upload speeds between 6.93k/s and 10.94. The current LimeWire scheme of quantizing us as modem/cable is a real pain. I have a cable connection but I sometimes set my conection to "modem" just to slow down my uploads when I need to do stuff, can't the slider go all the way down? I mean 1/2 the time I just want to slow down my personal uploads 'cause I like seeing 60+ people connected to my PC when I set it to "UltraPeer". Cmon guys make the upload cap slider go from 0.001 to unlimited (on a log scale), I wanna share but your quantizer makes it hard. Soz Im so poor as to only have 15k upstream but you know, takes all sorts.

Hey, just as I'm sitting here drinking some really good australian beer I thought "hey how 'bout a toggle so you could select between file uploader and network UltraPeer" just too keep the network churning along out here in the boonies. Cheers.

LimeWire already reduces the upload speed for ultrapeers, even if you can't see that in the options.

A feature to search your library within Limewire (for keywords, etc.) would be amazing.

Default Auto resume downloads

Once all your download get need more sources it as far as I have seen doesn't automatically checks after some time if sources are available there should be a time feature like 2 minute or 5 after which all download which were stoped due to lack of sources get resumed.

Thumbs down re: Dowload Scheduler

There already is an option available for limewire itself to shut down after completing transfers.

If you right click the icon in the system tray it is available as 'Exit After Transfers'.

I personally wouldn't want limewire to have the power to shut down my computer.

Limewire wouldn't need to have the power to shut down the whole computer. Just the Program itself. I suggested this months ago.

A feature that should be implemented to that as well is seperate scheduler for downloads and uploads since many have a montly limit on how much to download during peakhours and flatrate part of the day/night but no limit on uploads From their ISP

Agree with Sleepy... My two cents are :

We are aware that LW can be shut down after all downloads are complete, however it would be nice to have a feature to d/l at particular times, or schedule the d/l. That is what I guess the main request was.

Also a good suggestion made, to check for new sources. Sometimes it does happen that ur d/l from 1 host and the host logs off, then u just get stuck with a 90% d/l till another host comes up (also could be a day bef4 some1 shows up with the file u r d/loading !)

Cheers!

As someone who is broadband-challenged, lemme say that this request SUCKS!

To faster I can download a file (especially a large file), the better.
