BitTorrent settings
Interface
Display Additional BitTorrent interface elements Check the box if you want more information displayed
Download Connections
Torrents at once: How many torrents you want to have active. Default is 3. Recommendation is no more than 3 as you will have more over head traffic and will possibly slow both your uploads and downloads.
Client Connections: How many active connections you want to have actively downloading/uploading. Default is 100. Reduce this number if you have issues crashing (Win98SE), if you have slow upload/download capacity (modem) then you may want to reduce this number so that you will not have as much overhead messaging traffic.
Clear Downloaded Torrents when the share ratio reaches X %: This allows Shareaza to stop seeding once a certain percentage of the torrent has been uploaded. If you want to personally decide when to stop seeding don't check this box.
Prefer torrent sources: For downloads that have BitTorrent sources, as well as G2, Gnutella or ed2k sources, Shareaza will prefer maintaining or establishing contact with BitTorrent sources.
EndGame
Enable EndGame Mode: Check the box if you are having trouble getting the last piece of the files. Shareaza will query more peers for the last missing pieces.
