Hi, I have extremely slow internet, I've been trying to download stuff from torrents.

Ktorrent starts downloading said file(s) and it'll get about oh around 500KB, BUT after a while it stops downloading (but still reports it's downloading) BUT it's actually wasting my time uploading!!!, the file(s) may not even be complete on my end yet.. and it is uploading to leechers!!

because of my slow connection I can rarely be a seeder, it would waste ALL my time.

how can I turn off the uploads all together?

I don't see it in 'configure ktorrent', all I see there is a way to limit the ammount uploaded, I want to kill uploading all together cause it ends up taking up my entire connection(regardless if I set upload speed to 1kbps, it still uploads at 4.4kb) so I can't download..

so how can I reconfigure/add this to your program?

thanks

This is bittorrent, uploading is not optional, it is required
