Which brings me to a very puzzling situation.  I have just been downloading 
using azureus.  I could change the upload and download speeds easily, and the 
requested settings were reflected in the actual speeds within a short time.  
However, our LAN is still having some problems with it.  Whenever azureus is 
running, either here on FC4 or on an XP box, all the other users of the 
network get very many time-outs.  You may or may not be able to get an 
Internet connection, though often it will be the page that has timed out.  
Fetchmail times out constantly.

I really would like to solve this puzzle.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
