I suspect the programmers don't realise exactly how much this has affected the normal users of LW. You should test your changes before making them permanent! I certainly wouldn't buy pro if i was getting results like i'm getting now. I don't believe i need to put it any more clearly. LW was fine before, if you need to reduce certain things to make it more gnutella client community compliant then please say.
As it stands, LW is quite a different program than it was before & requires a totally different approach than any previous version. On top of that, it means that users need to know & understand the most advanced skills of using LW in order to make it work let alone continue incomplete files which now have a "lesser" chance of completing & more & more incompletes will basically become obsolete b/c LW won't recognise or remember the previous hosts.
