Thanks again!
Super-seeding is usually something you would do if you are the *only* seed on a show. It gives out a piece to someone and then if that person is a good sharer (giving that piece out to others), then it will give more to that person. If the person is not a good sharer (low upload rate, not passing along the piece) then it won't give that person more pieces. I'm not sure why it would work better for you that way. I just looked at the settings available for bittorrent and don't see anything like the 'rules' in Azureus and utorrent that could slow you down. So, um.....
