    Hey,

    Just got a couple of quick questions before I start working
    on this one. Are the peers still uploading/downloading from
    you when they drop to 0%? Also is there any relationship
    between the peers that do this? - i.e. Same type of
    BitTorrent client, Same tracker etc

    Thanks

    I can't seem to replicate this error here... which tracker
    were you connected to or which torrent were you downloading
    when this happened? e-mail me via my sourceforge account if
    you don't want to post the details in this bug report.

    Thanks

    Still uploading/downloading from me, but never rise above
    zero again. Know one personally, and checked his figures
    were >0 (he using Shad0w).
    Not tracker, as Azureus OK% (but feels murky now, often
    fails to accept remote conns - unlike Rufe). Will report back
    any further correlatives. Nil peers using Rufus, though am
    beginning to spot him around (twice)! [Always give priority to
    Rufus!] Never had that memory error that I did in G3, though,
    which is tres cool.

    Of course, there is no way of KNOWING if other (non-zero) %
    ages are also being misreported. But it DOES seem to be
    the case that the misreports relate to LATE CONNECTIONS
    from the peer group, and not to the connections made when
    first establishing the torrent.

    Please note: the '%' sign in the % column entries is
    REDUNDANT [as is the k in the upload/download speed
    columns], and visually distracting, and the space would be
    better assigned to a decimal place. The progress of all peers
    could then be better monitored.
