This is not that bad idea because i still upload to them. It's a
personal investigation about emule credit system to see if it really
works. That's why i would like more details in stats. It will not make
into official mldonkey and it has nothing to do with mldonkey (i should
have used emule to do the trick).

Stopping credit system should be a better idea for emule devs, my patch
will become useless.
Anyway i will probably stop patching mldonkey it's a waste of time :
edonkey and overnet networks have no future. I will swtich to a better
one, and i hope to meet lots of you there.
I don't know how to disable download to emule but disabling upload to
emule is quite easy. But you will still have request from emule.
