because you are cutting down your bandwidth that the explorer can use - imagine the interent connection as a water faucet - it only pumpus out 50 gals/min - now if you are filling a bucket with 40 gal/min of water that leaves you with 10/gals per min to do whatever else with...

hope this makes sense
