I noticed many questions about this on the forums, is there some kind of fix or is it a bug? Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

Up ability to download content is basically limited by host you are uploading from. Unfortunately, a large number of people sharing content on the network are either

#1 Firewalled
#2 busy serving other users
#3 using 56-128Kbps connections this translates to roughly
7-16K max downloads. Try to keep this in mind. If you want to test your ability to download let me know and I can give you access to a machine connected to a T1 and you'll see the difference.
