I have been using Limewire for a while now and enjoy relative success, with downloads.

However, uploads are rare and when I get them they very rarely complete. Plus I only get about 14k/sec max when uploading, when I can download at 50k/sec max.

On my connections tab, at the bottom next to 'keep approximately 6 connections up', I see [leaf].

On rare occasions I see [ultrapeer], however when this occurs I get little or no search results.

My question is this, would I get more uploads if I was connected as [ultrapeer]?

I want to share my files but I am finding it very difficult.

thanx in advance

ps. apologies if this seems a tired or dumb question.
