Just to emphasise a point LOTR has made, how can you tell if someone is or is not a freeloader?

For example, I do not have chat enabled and my PC is behind two firewalls, the NAT table in my modem/router and my Norton Firewall (NPF), so I am pretty certain that no one can browse my shared files. Yet I can see incoming searches and people (IP addresses actually) downloading files from my PC.

So, before you get yourself "bent all out of shape" over freeloaders make sure you know how to identify them because, as LOTR has said,

I do wish there was better detection of those who do or don't share
because at the moment there is no way of identifying freeloaders within LW.
