The horizon is provided by a special heartbeat node which collects the stats and
also remotely controls all Bears version 5.2 and up. It's not essential, and given
the remote controls that were added, we're all a lot better off without it.

Cox may be interfering with uploads again and detecting by software type instead
of protocol and port. They have been caught illegally sending forged TCP reset
packets to both ends of an upload connection and will probably end up losing a
class action in court over this, or even get in trouble with the FCC.

Enable the Console View and start turning on reporters for uploads, queuing and
connections logic. More specific info on errors will show up in there.

If you haven't done so already, enable all of the columns in the Uploads View.

Better yet, if you can set your monitor to 1600x1200 download this and unzip it
into the program folder.
I've added some console settings you can paste into freepeers.ini.

Thanks.... I'll take a look at those settings. I don't think it's Cox doing it, since Limewire runs fine on the same box, with essentially the same settings. I just had it up, and had 10 simultaneous uploads going on it (in leaf mode).

I disabled the UDP reporter in the console, since it returns pages and pages of the Limewire messages. Haven't seen anything of interest pop up there yet.

Thanks

Nick
