Thanks for the suggestions.  I have dsl with 640K Up/640K Down.  I tried 
adjusting the upload limit but it didn't seem to help.  I hoped I was just 
missing the option with bittorrent to limit the download rate.  I have now 
moved the existing partial file to another machine where I can limit the 
bandwidth for that machine.

Thanks,
