I don't believe you can turn this off. It started in 1.8 somewhere, didn't it? I'm too lazy to look at the change log, but you are welcome to.

[quote]MP provides "staying power" for a select group of people, those with a large amount of gaming time to spend in large blocks that happens to coincide with the gaming time available to other people with whom they enjoy playing. To say that a minority of gamers fit this category would be a laughable understatement. To the rest of us, a game that has been developed solely for single player and as such has the best AI and the most versatility possible for a game of its type has massively more

Very true Bichur. I intended from the customer's viewpoint. There is no real incentive for me to work faster as I make more the longer it takes.

It is my opinion that many cable providers are rather dishonest and monitor everything you download for content they deem inappropriate. They also tend to throttle certain ports and protocols. If you don't know what I am referring to, then you probably have no reason to care about those issues. You should call the ISP's you are interested in and ask many questions.
