Default Limewire very slow since ISP change

OK i switched ISP's a month or so back and ever since then my limewire download speeds are very low.
Before I was getting 100+kb/s any time

Now Im lucky if I crack 5kb/s (If it downloads at all) It might spike up to 20 or so once a day for a few seconds.

I checked the stickies but they dont help...ive tried limewire pro, frostwire, etc, i get a fine connection status but its just so damn slow its not even worth it.

My line tests at like 7Mb down (as opposed to 1Mb with my old ISP) so I was expecting an improvement here..not a drastic decrease. Everything else is great..gaming, surfing, etc....just limewire...

Kazaa lite works fine I get 100+ speeds (but every song you download off of there is 21 minutes of nothing)
I just tried to get into the whole torrent thing but I cant even get a connection, same with any other p2p i try to use.

I would think if my ISP was blocking my limewire use, it wouldnt work at all, but its connects, just dl's very VERY slow.
And KLite speeds are fine...the content just sucks.
