Bug Description

I normally use the options to slow down if i have to download a lot of files cause of a small band internet connection.

The download speed option is every time ignored i download LibreOffice per torrent:
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/4.0.3/win/x86/LibreOffice_4.0.3_Win_x86.msi.torrent

All other downloads work as expected, but LibreOffice downloads with maximum speed and blocks the complete bandwidth.
