 Re: Why are 99.9% of my downloads extremely slow?

I use Gnotella(mostly looking for movies), and regardless of the person I try to download from, 19 out of 20 are perma-busy and that one person that isn't busy, I get a download rate under 4kbp/s, sometimes as slow as 500 BYTES a second!
And it says they are on a DSL or even a T3...
What gives?
