I'm having the same problem and as I was looking for answers I see that lots of people are having the same issue. Although we got great downloads with our previous versions of LW once we paid for LW pro our downloads have slowed to a crawl. It's funny though cuz I've had Pro for about 6 months and it's only started giving me this insanely slow downloads within about a month I'd say. Anyone know of having anything that may have changed to cause Pro to be doing this for some people.
