Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) Moderators There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Defragment your Hard Disk Drive ! Like once a week, minimum. If you can, use Diskeeper and run a boot-time defragment at least once per week. Other defragmentation options available with Diskeeper, and temporary changes made to your Virtual Memory (Paging Files) settings (immediately before defragmenting) will improve overall performance. But, not knowing the details of what you have for a system means it is better to not give a lot of detailed 'tips' now... Would also be good to check your 'normal' Virtual Memory settings and... wow, a really crazy one... the settings in Internet Explorer for the amount of disk space to be 'reserved' for temporary internet files...  |

| And, of course... One other little 'trick' you can try to certainly improve overall performance and also regain quite a bit of user-access to the computer... It is a general 'fix' available from Micro$haft, and most users find, after applying this 'trick', that there is certainly a general improvement. Plus, there are only a few steps to watch out for when attempting to install the 'fix'... The 'trick' ? Remove Windoze XP and install, with a full format, Windoze 2000 Professional.  |

| I don't remember seeing ever Kazaalite maxing my bandwidth (125KB/s or 1mbit/s) which LW does quite often. Also remember that most people have a much lower upload bandwidth than dl so it's normal to not reach you max speed. Best thing to do is to dl kazaalite (from LW) install it and test it concurrently with LW. Post your results here. Ciao

What would you suggest regarding the minimum time such an experiment should have as its course ? What 'test criteria' would you suggest in order to 'normalize' the test... i.e. what file(s) to be chosen for Search, Download and Upload ? The files must be the same for both 'clients'. The connections must be absolutely equal. The system resources available must be identical. and, errr, a long list of other thingies that gotta be the same... At best, the resultant can only be an extrapolation... Engineers know that extrapolation is a really nifty word that actually means to bulls*** oneself !!! Scientists have even funnier definitions for it... |

| Ursula, I'm a scientist, and I know that all these parameters should be taken and weighted  This is not what is important from a user point of view: the user will have a feeling that an app will be faster than an other and it is subjective, however he will choose one. Why do you think shareaza displays bandwidth in kbs instead of KBs? It makes think users dl go faster. Why do bearshare shows 1% dowloaded of a file at the very moment you get the first byte of a download? Also for the speed feeling. What I say is that every users should make their mind by trying competition and then have real (read subejective but important to them) reasons to use a product instead of an other.EllisD post your findings please they might differ than mine.

| Hey all--for additional port information, see Jens-Uwe's explanation for "which ports?" once those darn ports are properly configured, p2p apps really fly. Took months for the experts to get me to understand what settings to use.  and Scientists, (in French at least) can be guided by the heart Quote:
