most servers never allow you to use bandwidth like that unless you are a paying member or something.

I never understood the concept of a website cutting your download per second.
How are you able to control that??

i figured out today that the the dark blue is the total % of the files you loaded, light blue is the % of the file you're loading :D

I find this very interesting, however this new hosting solution did jack bullstuff to me. 12 kb/s DL speed still loving woo-hoo

The hosting service does not tell the client what color of loading bar to have. That would be pointless.

The downloading has two different colors. The light blue which is for each individual file, and a back normal blue color for datablocks.
