what does this mean?
 

what does it mean when you see on the "monitor" screen that the same person is getting one of your songs four or six times? they are at different transfer rates and different progresses. why would this person want to get the same song four times? it happens all the time.

I have noticed this too, and as I watched, it seemed as if each time they connected, more of the file was downloaded. I concluded that the reason was the new swarm download ability. From what I have read, the file is being downloaded from more than one host, however, I don't think it is supposed to show up as a seporate download each time they get some of the file from you. My guess is that the person doing the downloading was not using LimeWire, thus causing the new downloads to appear. Sounds like some work is still needed on that, if not by LimeWire, then by other clients.

thanks for the reply, gigglespit. i was beginning to think i hated this forum more than i actually do....
