I would just like to mention that I have no such problems with ZOC even with the LEDs on. I have heard that the LEDs can cause some of the CPU monitoring programs to show a high rate because the priority of screen updates is higher than other things. But this would/should not result in errors while downloading. I have an 8MB system and can do many things while downloading at 14.4 and maintaining 1500+ cps on Zip files, higher on other files (up to something like 3000+ on plain text).
