RSDonovan is flying high
Default Starting Limewire drastically cuts my bandwidth

I run a "speedometer" program that measures my bandwith speed. Normally I get a download speed of 10 mbps which is what I pay for.

Every time I start Limewire, the download speed *immediately* falls DRAMATICALLY, like down to between 0.5 mbps and 2 mbps EVEN BEFORE I SEARCH FOR ANYTHING OR TRY TO DOWNLOAD ANYTHING!!!

If I close down Limewire I revert back to my normal 10mbps

Consequently, anything else I run goes at snail speed!

Grateful for any ideas!
