In Australia, there are ISPs which limit users to 5 GB of bandwidth a month or less...
They either leech or may end up with a bandwidth bill that looks like they're buying a new computer.<!--QuoteBegin--tyk@4 June 2003 - 07:38
Sorry to side track from the topic, anyway 'cancel dl' action may also due to Supernode jumping, a method which I employed sometimes, in hope for finding some source to download for the rare files which sit idling in my sharefolder for months.
Other time when theres only 1 uploading, the upload speed can read 1.07K which I don't understand as my upload Bandwidth is 256K, and after a while it just 'abort', which the user may see as 'cancel'.[/quote]If you cancel an upload -- they see "need more sources", "searching", or it may even continue downloading if other sources are sending that file to them.
On your end, a spontaneously failed upload shows up as "aborted" while one you cancelled shows up as "cancelled" -- however REDUCING your max uploads will cancel the current uploads if there's too many going. This is why people who've run 'optimal bandwidth while idle' see whole screens of cancelled uploads... and one of the many reasons why I HATE it.
If an upload is running slow for your connection and next-to-nothing else is going on -- it's probably a problem on the other end.
