what is this uploading the downloader program is doing?
It's a file sharing program called BitTorrent. It allows people to share the upload/download of files. Unfortunately the version that Blizzard uses is severely limited in being able to limit your upload speeds, which in turn destroys your download speeds if you're on an uneven isp such as cable. :(
I'm still awaiting someone to be able to extract the .torrent file and let the people who use BT a chance to fiddle with it and download a bit quicker while not sacrificing ALL of our bandwith.
