More bandwidth pleeeease

In future versions of Xolox, as it is intended for users with high speed connections, I would like the speed limit to be extended beyond 20k per second. Or even removed all together ?

On Kazaa I can get speeds of upto 600k per sec, even on Limewire I can get 100k per sec.

Also, it would be great if you had a "stop" button for the searches so as my other programs (IExplorer/Winamp etc) arent slowed down.

Cool program though.

Just set it to MAX (below 1) or set it to kick in when idle

Well my upload speed it set to 10k/s but I am downloading at rates higher than that. One download is currently at 25k/s and there are several others at 15k/s (right now I am getting an aggregated download speed of about 85k/s)

While my cable modem is cable of more than that (maybe up to 300k/s) I assume the downloads are being limited by the other user's upload speed limits.

Perhaps you were downloading a non-compressed file when you got 600k/s from Kazaa. If you download a text file you will see very inflated numbers compared to ZIP, MP3, AVI or MPG.

Hey thanks, I never noticed this. Shouldn't MAX be listed at the end (after 12) instead of at the beginning?
