It's even easier than that! In the lower-right-hand corner of the Azureus window are two icons (upward- and downward-facing triangles) and two numbers (the upload and download limit, resp.). A right click on either of those numbers presents a menu of alternative limits. It is also possible to change these limits via the tray icon without even making the main window visible. A right click on the Azureus tray icon produces a menu with two sub-menus: "Max Up" and "Max Down" Azureus is a mature and sophisticated program with a zillion and a half options and information displays (my favorite is the "Swarm" display). It's surely far more than is needed just to share files, but if you like extra fancy software, it's the bee's knees. And as others have mentioned, it's not exactly light on resource requirements. Azureus is the only BitTorrent client I've used, but it appears that BitTorrent is a pretty complex protocol, and not entirely trivial to get right. I think Azureus pretty much does have it right. Others perhaps less so. > ... > > so this a good client, among others, probably > > jdd Randall Schulz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
