I think 1 is green. Trackers keep track of this and reward people who upload more. its a reward system that encourages people to keep the torrents going. to improve you ratio you can set your upload limit higher while downloading, although this might negatively impact your download speed depending on your connection, or 2) you can "seed" torrents after you're finished with them. I try to keep files i download uploading until i reach at least 1.5 ratio on them. to seed just keep the torrent going after you're 100%. since you stop downloading and are full upload it will improve your ratio quickly. your ratio is how much uploaded / (divided) downloaded. if it is red it meas that you have downloaded alot more than you have uploaded.

When I initially installed Azureus, a window would appear before commencing a download that would allow me to choose what files to download. Music, for example, I could choose a few songs form an album instead of the whole album. I can't seem to figure out how to omit unwanted files. Please help. Thanks, DG Hello Paul,

Trackbacks are separated at the end. As for what to upload... you don't need to do _anything_ differently. If you are downloading a torrent for something, it will upload as well.

(btw, the chrono order of the posts listed is askew i.e: it jumps from 2007 to 2005) You didn't deal with my question about WHAT I should upload, and TO WHOM. I also wonder if Azureus or any Torrent app is a door open to intruders, trojans or such like. Finally, in the tiny pacific island where i live, the ADSL available is only 128Kb (dl). Is Azureus a practical proposition at that speed? Thank you Paul for taking the trouble to reply. (btw, the chrono order of the posts listed is askew i.e: it jumps from 2007 to 2005)

That's how bittorrent works, you are downloading from peers that are uploading to you and you are doing the same. Usually, you would download faster than you upload so it is recommended that you continue uploading after your download has finished. This is called seeding. maurice – when you download a torrent you are automatically uploading to our peers as well.

Upload what? To whom? I don't suppose that my mac HD is freely open to anyone to browse in it and pick what they like. How then would I know what to upload? I am surprised that no one has aked these questions before. Maybe they have but I didn't spot them or else I am unusually dumb and I am asking something that everyone else understood already... A few words to put me on the right path would be much appreciated. I couldn’t find in Google or anywhere else a brief explanation of the principle that I must upload about as much as I download.

First of all, I don't know beans about this program or how to use it. Then I've got a red circle down at the bottom that says I'm firewalled. I'm using AVG Virus Protection and Firewall. I've tried to configure the firewall but evidently I didn't do it right. Anybody know how to configure the AVG Firewall? My router is a LinkSys WRK54G Wireless. I tried to configure it too but evidently I screwed that up also. I've been fooling with this program for 3 days now and its about ready to go to the trash can.
