You can limit your searches to four star results so you are not trying to download from "questionable" connections.

As far as your download speed is concerned you will be limited by the upload capability of your host. If you are connected to a person with low bandwidth, a person only allowing a small portion of their bandwidth to Limewire, or a person that has several uploads in process the bottleneck will be that connection. Not Limewire or yours. Most of the time your download speed will be limited to the ability of your host to serve you. Not everyone has high speed connections and most are sharing their bandwidth with others.
