Flash plugin uses your upload stream to stream content to other website visitors. WTF? My settings had a pretty loooong list of website that uses this feature. I clicked on "Disable P2P link for all"
On my cable internet I don't care much if it uses my upload or not, but on 3G for example I am paying for all the traffic.
Ooh and btw, it looks like flashplayer uses it's own ip settings on firefox. So, if you browse through proxy and website has flash stuff, they will be able to detect your real ip....
