I Have the Same problem, MLDonkey just doesn't care 
about bandwidth limitation. It even goes a step further, 
it opens so many connections (no matter what I tell it) 
that it goes over my (ISP) cap.
So everytime I let MLDonkey run, I lose my inet 
connection because my ISP cuts me off.

Judging from the Mailinglists and the reports here, I am 
not the only one with this. and the problem seems to be 
rather old news.

Will it ever be fixed, or just ignored?

I did solve my problem - sort of.

I now use policy routing in my Cisco router to limit the
upstream from mldonkey...

Certainly not a soultion for everyone.
