this should only happen with outdated gnutella software, or if they are using one of those so called accelerators (which btw don't do much good anyway)

uploads etc..
 
Thanks hobo et. al. for info,yes I understand that part files are downloaded from each host, to make up the complete file, recently i've had 8 or so requests from same address for the one file ,(as ive been allowing far to many per person) ie same host uploading 4/5 bits of the same file( Yes i was allowing too many slots)
Have now adjusted no's accordingly,thankyou ALL for info, most usefull, my inexpierience must have been taken as Greed by quite a few !! so am adjusting my Dload policy as well !!
Please can you confirm that over time I can return to hosts repeatedly, unless they take an instant dislike to my cyberpersona ! ie no set limit on hosts,so maybe 1or 2 files one day and same a few days later? Noted hobo about queing 50, nice one!
Yours slightly better informed now, newbee.:Smilywais: PS Still think the network would be better if slots were set higher !
This is a delicate balancing act isn;t it ! share too many ,risk of prosecution,share too few,become freeloader ! upload and Download balancing,etc.. for the newbee it's more like ''Highwire'' than Limewire ! But thanks ALL for help.Might be able to walk upright soon!

Out of interest,if you can qu 50 files,how does this equate with my upload limit, i.e. iv'e noticed that after 10 are qued in window the message appears '' upload limit reached'' does this mean that they are still held in a qu over that limit?or that when 10 uploads are reached no more are taken on board? if this is so (10 limit) then how can u qu 50?on another host? Sorry if I appear a bit dim on this, I am a bit dim !!

confusion
 
Excellent ! I understood that ! Thanks Hobo, confusion level reaching 'Fusion' type temperatures ! Upload limits and Slots, uploads per person are the stuff of nightmares ! Gradual dawning of understanding vieing with more flipping questions, such is life for the beginner ! Do appreciate the help !!!:idea:
