Downloads are getting slower and slower ???

[rxkevco]

Hi all,,,,
Only my second post on the forum,, and am very glad that i eventually found this place.
Have been using limewire for a couple of years now,, so " i think " i am a pretty advanced user,,, however,, i have only ever downloaded audio files.

Since upgrading to the latest version of pro,,,i have noticed a very obvious reduction in the speed that files are being downloaded.
Most files semm to be downloading at 1, 2 , 3,, or 4 kb/s.

This has obviously resulted in relativly small audio files taking anything from 15/20 mins or sometimes a lot longer,,, Am very puzzled by this as its only since the upgrade that its happened.
I have limewire configured ,,,EXACTLY,,,as i always have. Nothing has changed and it is optimised as i always have had it.

Would really appreciate any advice that anybody can throw my way.
Cheers,, kev.
