Limewire and uploads help

[zach_06]

I have a wireless broadband internet connection and as it is through telstra i have a 3GIG limit (this is the only broadband available to me except the activ8 me one which has the same prices anyway) i had limewire on my computer however as i have never had a limited internet plan i just did not think of it and i was downloading some songs however someone also uploaded some songs and took all my usage from me in one day into my monthly usuage i want to know is there any way to STOP people uploading from me or is there a better programme to use where i can control this i am open to any ideas.

THANKS

don't share songs; or as soon as you've downloaded something, move the file elsewhere.

yeh its a bitch , but do this

go to 'tools'
then 'options'
go to 'uploads'
then 'slots'

and go to max upload slots and type in 0

Don't use Telstra as an ISP is the BEST solution to your problem.

Nice advice except . . . .

(this is the only broadband available to me except the activ8 me one which has the same prices anyway)

So one more option but maybe telstra was easier to set-up.

Do people still use limewire

Jump on the torrent train man. limewire teabags compared to torrents

Parabola. limewire is good if you just want 1 song or something like that.

I use limewire to download single songs of bands that i don't really like alot.

Try soulseek for music. I've never used Limewire but if its like the old Kazaa its probably full of spyware and bogus files.

Kazaa was AWESOME.

For a while it was yeah. Then people started renaming files and they ran in to legal trouble and it all went downhill from there.
