I meant the patch downloader

I let it go this morning, apart from WoW it killed video-on-demand and 
other use
10.6G plus some yesterday
9.02 GB (9,692,993,548 bytes) in the directory, maybe some more elsewhere

Yesterday evening the background downloader for patch 6.0.2 became 
active, serving up around 15GB of patch data. Shortly after the 
downloader became active Blizzard pulled it offline. Zarhym explains:


but not installed so still shows
V 5.4.8.18414

I mainly wanted to mention there can be some problems with it.
It kicked off while I was ingame at max bandwidth, suddenly massive lag, 
25 second lag, and it refused to stop or slow down and even continued in 
background when the entire game and blizzard loader was exited, blizzard 
updater task was separate.

A bug and I may be the only person in the universe it happened to.
It could destroy a persons monthly quota, or it could put them into 
overquota charges if not capped.

Check settings, check it behaves.
