Answer 1

Essentially what that means is that "Peers" have connected to your computer and downloaded the same file you're downloading. Look at it this way, you're downloading a file, but it doesn't BitTorrent doesn't download it from beginning to end, in order. It only downloads bits a pieces from other peers and seeds. If you feel uncomfortable having other people downloading the file from you, you can always turn off uploading, though I don't recommend it as it will greatly decrease your download speeds. To answer your question (finally) yes, this is probably true, especially if you're already done downloading the file. If you're already done, and still uploading this is known as "Seeding" and if you're uploading and finished downloading, you're known as a "Seed." Some might say that seeding will lower your bandwidth, thus lowering your internet speed, but I have noticed the difference to be practically transparent.

I hope this helps
