The description of Firefox Throttle - Play With New Friends
Cap the upload and download limits on FirefoxWe've all had problems where our browsing speed has been limited by other uploads or downloads or problems on a network.Often this can be related to other processes on your system but more often than not, it's because you have other downloads and uploads, such as on a P2P network, that's hogging all your bandwidth. In which case, usually there's not much you can but close the offending application down. Not to however with Firefox Throttle which allows you to limit the uploads and downloads on your system. You set the limits according to how much bandwidth you have and the program does the rest.You can exclude certain IP addresses however if it's essential that certain programs or pages need lots of bandwidth. The good thing is that this program can even be used as a solution over an entire network because you can install it on individual PC's. . The problem however is that users can easily uninstall it meaning that they can hog even more bandwidth to their heart's content whilst others suffer. To ensure that lost bandwidth is "caught up with" at a later stage, it also features a "bursting mode" which detects when your bandwidth is at low usage and allocates it those applications that have been held back. Unlike it's Internet Explorer counterpart IE Throttle, Firefox Throttle also includes some nice little add-ons such as a traffic stats analyser (for your current session and after the last reset) plus a status panel with traffic counters.This is a useful little utility that can be of help to those individuals or even organisations that have been experiencing bandwidth problems or just web master that want more info over their traffic stats.This is a useful little utility that can be of help to those individuals or even organisations that have been experiencing bandwidth problems or just web master that want more info over their traffic stats.Fixed Configuration saving bug, introduced with incorrectly uploaded 1.1.5 ChangesFixed Configuration saving bug, introduced with incorrectly uploaded 1.1.5 Fixed Configuration saving bug, introduced with incorrectly uploaded 1.1.5 Fixed Configuration saving bug, introduced with incorrectly uploaded 1.1.5
