Thanks! I just downloaded 4.0.6 and will let you know if it helps matters.

ETA: Nope, no luck. I've eliminated everything else that could possibly be the problem (reverted back to my original ADSL settings and even did a speed test) and I'm still getting lousy download speeds.

One file I tried was hosted by 33 people. I got a connection to 8 hosts (one at least of which was a T1) and was still only managing 14 kbps. This, by the way, was with a "TurboCharged" connection to at least 6 Ultrapeers.

Please oh please tell me where I might download the older version of LimeWire!
