The speed of a modem is usually measured in kbit/s. A 56k modem can transfer 56 000 bits/second = 7000 Bytes/second = 6,8 kiloBytes/second (7 kiloBytes/second).

Downloads

Expand new downloads by default Downloads are automatically expanded, so that you can see all sources

Display simple progress bar If selected, the progress bar will reflect only the proportion of the download completed, but not the position of the parts. This may save a minor amount of computing power.

Filter adult content from searches Have shareaza filter certain keywords often associated with adult content from the search results.

Tooltips

Check the sections where you want tooltips to be displayed. Normally, all sections are checked.

The Delay is the time in miliseconds (1000ms = 1s) you have to wait until the tooltip is displayed.

The Opacity slider sets the level of transparency for the tooltips. If the slider is on the right side it means the tooltip is completely visible, if it is on the left, it means that the tooltip is invisible.

Note • The Opacity option may only work on Windows 2000 and Windows XP

• Minimize to tray means what you can see in figure II. Shareaza won't show up in the taskbar then.
• Normal means normal windows function. (i.e. minimize to windows taskbar)
