Might not be quite so relevant here, but, my first term at university i was all smiles about the fact that we have a 10MBs connection here (T1 I think?). Anyhow, got my ibook set up and my internet connection, downloaded LW and low and behold it wouldn't connect.

Now, I don't know what happened, but a few weeks of non-connection and an irate fresher later, LW suddenly decided to work. I know for a fact that the uni network is monitored and I'm actually playing a dangerous game sharing files but what the hey!

So yeah, I don't know what the deal is, but mid-way through the term, I could download at my leisure. And then I had my laptop stolen, so I got a new one (on insurance ). And then I'm having problems again.

It could just be something really random to do with the network. That's my theory. And mine is now doing the same thing as before (see my posts in the other forum) as I speak.

Anyone, any ideas as to actually get LW downloading? Got it connected now, but it's really struggling to download.
