Slow internet connection when using torrent

[danazed]

Hi, I have a problem

My roommate is always dowloading, and she doesn't even know how to properly close the program.

The fact is that usually my download speed is around 8 mbps, when she's using torrent it can go to 0,5 mbps!

How should she change the settings to resolve this problem? My internet connection is supposed to be 10mb

I don't want her to download very slow (coz I use it too, and I wanna use the same settings), but I need a fast internet connection because I play online.

Please help me.
