Hi Lord,thanks for the reply.

Windows Firewall is deactivated.I can't understand why the downloading was working fine topping 25-30 kb/s for a couple of hours and then the most i can get out of it now is 8-10 kb/sec.I haven't changed anything on my pc.

up loads and downloads are working fine.All downloads are 4 star with 11 # thingies (I am a true techy as you can tell).They are just working alot slower than when I first started.

Cheers

Hux
