These issues are both fixed in the LimeWire 2.6.0 beta. The bug with throttled uploads has actually been in the code for a long time, so it wasn't new to 2.5.5. The other one (where 0 k/s was displayed) is caused by HTTP HEAD requests. The normal HTTP request is a "GET" request, meaning "give me this files" and here's some other "header" information about me and about the file I'm requesting. A HEAD request asks for just the second part -- just exhange headers with me, the extra infomation, but don't actually give me the file. The HEAD requests would show up in the upload window as having made 0 progress because, of course, no file had been sent. Now, those HEAD requests simply get listed as completed (since they are).

Thanks.
