Default sharing bandwith?

ok, i know i am not the only one fighting this, but this is a flaw that needs to be fixed.... it may be something i have inadvertently done by my config but i can not figure it out.... when i am downloading a movie i have found that others start sharing MY bandwith to get their movies, thereby slowing me down or stopping my download altogether.... example... was downloading steven segal-submerged and found that 4 other peoples were downloading from me at the same time. however, they were downloading from a point past what i was downloading to my hard drive.... the screen showsme a 60 % but they were in the 80's and 90's... when i turned them off (killed upload) my download increased by at least 10kbps as they came back onme it slowed down again... i dont want to be a freeloader but this has to end... any ideas??? can any body find me some bandwith to love??
