Hey guys,

I use emule, and my pc isn't that great and when I upload it slows me pc down a lot. I was wondering if there was a way to stop it and allow downloading at like 20KB? or like disable it in rege like kazaa. Or something that like tricks it, so it thinks your uploading?

Disabling upload is gay, you expect people to share with you, but you don't want to share back....

The only way files will get shared well (and you will get a chance to dl them) is if other people share... think about it,

if everyone stopped sharing, you wouldn't get anything

Finally.... emule r0x :?)

And you guys are made cuz i dun share, i have a made connect and it slows my pc to hell, i have a reason not to share, if i had a fast connect and a good pc at least a p3 id upload but mines terrible

the only way would be too find a moded version of the program

i have tried to limit my uploads using a bandwith controller, but emule notices and slows my downloads down

i'd advice you not to use emule as its well sucky, switch to bittorent or irc :)

look for different versions of emule thats all i can say

there is absolutly no excuse to use leech mods.

your puter slows down when you upload? i say you are 100% god dammed lair!

total dowload=total upload. if everybody would be like you and don't upload, nobody would download either.

instead of looking for excuses not to upload why don't you fix your computer!

offical version and many mods have features that reduce cpu load.

everybody is equal. everybody must follow same rules or ######(you seem to be one of them) will kill that network.

Allright thats just being a straight out ######

I agree, downloads=uploads both slow pc down, but both at same time slow it down even more. My pc is a 566MHZ 256SD Ram, and a 32 Bit card, fix it you say? give me money and I will buy a new one, im not rich maybe you are, but if you have ass comment next time keep them to yourself christ. You seem to be an ###### thats ruining neowin.

he probably isnt talking about the actual SYSTEM slowing down, but more that maybe that internet pages dont load as quickly because he is using all his bandwidth to upload, but i have never heard of it to slow down your pc. i know that emule and mods for emule have memory leaks (at least for me they do) and that could cause it to slow down AFTER A WHILE (like 2-5 hours later) but i havent heard of anything else.

my net upload is capped at 16 k/bytes sec, so if i set my upload/download ratio to 0/0, then i can barely surf the web or play cs, but what i have done is set my upload to 8 and my download is (i think) 32, and that is enough for me.

lol, i can tell you how u can fix the problem so you dont upload, but im not going to, i dont do it (and i know how to) and neither should anyone else. like everyone said earlier, if you dont share, how the hell is anyone gonna download?

my advise to you is, if emule is slowing you down, then use something else, kazaa, irc, etc..

exactly as everyone else is saying. it is not justified when all you want to do is leech/download off other people while others can't download from you. think about it... it's like this: there are a bunch of rich people, and you are poor. you expect them to just continually give you money out of charity... I don't think so buddy. you only get what you work for. so likewise, if you are not about to contribute back to the commnuity, why the hell would they want you?

566mhz is more than enough to handle emule.

if your computer is slowing down during transfers i said FIX YOUR COMPUTER, not upgrade it. big difference.

like i said before, offical client and some mods have features to reduce cpu usage...but it seems like you don't care anymore so oh well.

if i have "ass comment" next time i'll also post it to make sure you know it.

and by the looks of it, my ass comment is not so ass :p

    • Microsoft officially confirms that Windows 11 version 25H2 is coming later this year

      By George P · Posted

      I don't know when it'll happen but the jump in the Canary builds indicate to me we're getting closer. I think if we're going to see anything about a Win12 it'll be with builds 28000 and up.

      I don't expect to see 12 this year, but not for this reason. Windows 10 got a 21H2 update the year Windows 11 came out, it even got 22H2 the next yet.
    • Android 16 can warn you if a fake cell tower is trying to spy on you

      By +thexfile · Posted

      Android 16 adds a new "network notification" setting that warns you when a rogue "stingray" device is trying to spy on you There are many simple things you can do to keep your private information safe, like using strong passwords, scrutinizing app permissions, and only installing apps from trusted sources. However, some attacks are much harder to protect yourself against, as they’re so sophisticated and stealthy that they can happen without you ever noticing. One such attack tricks your phone into connecting to a fake, insecure mobile network, which is difficult for the average person to detect. Fortunately, the new Android 16 update has a feature that can warn you when someone is using this tactic to snoop on you. This type of attack uses a device called a “stingray.” An attacker sets up this device near a target they want to surveil, and it mimics a legitimate cell tower. The stingray tricks nearby mobile devices into connecting to it, allowing the attacker to collect unique identifiers (like the IMEI) and even force them onto an older, more insecure communication protocol. These identifiers allow attackers to target specific devices for analysis, while switching protocols can let them intercept unencrypted text messages and phone calls. https://www.androidauthority.com/android-16-mobile-network-security-3571497/
    • Edge 138 is out with AI-powered history search and other changes

      By NXTwoThou · Posted

      It's worse in Canary this week. When you type something in the address bar and press enter, most cases it defaults to "Ask copilot" that shoves whatever you wrote into copilot. Then you have to retype whatever you wanted and use the down arrow or mouse to select your search engine instead of copilot. Each version that has this behavior(that can't be turned off in settings yet) I'm sending feedback in hoping they don't do this into other channels.
