Thanks for the reply....I have tried everything you suggested, however it is still slow (1kb/s)....you refered me to the 'bug reports' under tools/options and down at the bottom of the report I found something that was at least interesting to me......
can you explain exactly what they are talking about?

it says;
MAX_Downloads_Bytes_per_sec= 1

This seems to indicate that is the maximun speed I can expect...

I understand that the speed is affected by whomever I am downloading from but each day and from different people it never increases from the 1 kb/s....

Until 4 weeks ago Limewire was just great and the downloads were very fast....now at only 1kb/s this program is almost useless.
It taked 30 to 40 minutes to download 1 song where by it used to take only 1 minute...
Thanks
Scott
