severe transfer obstructions

The effect of this behaviour is that after a view hours, if I let run the Limewire client in the background, 16 of my 20 open channels are blocked by 8 users who have this problem. The remaining 4 transfers are constricted by 16 channels which do not really upload but stay still in the upload status. The effect is that, after a view hours, only 20 % of my valuable transfer volume can be used, 80 % are blocked by sick clients.

Unfortunately I could not find out which client is used by the hindering users because it never happened that one of them has enabled his chat function (maybe it is a client without chat function).

As a workaround I propose that the client does the same what I did by hand when I saw that this problem occurred: Watch the upload speed, and if it gets exactly zero and stays zero a given time (a few minutes), then kill this upload!

I hope you can recognize that this is a severe problem of the gnutella network activated by any unknown client type, maybe two or three months ago.
