live4soccer7 is flying high
Default Download of .0123 kb/s!! That isn't right should be 50 kb/s Please help me anyone

I try to download songs from limewire and there are 30 sources or so and it is a 4 star rating and I download it from 8 hosts and the download rate is cable or higher and I can't even download at 1kb/s. My speed always says 0 kb/s. I put the mouse on the speed for awhile and it will show like .013470 kb/s or .1295 kb/s. What is the deal with this. My firewall gives full access to the program. My connection in limewire shows turbocharge and still only .012339 kb/s. I have mcafee as a virus protector and firewall. I don't have the windows firewall enabled, that way there is only one running. I can download other files like the limewire program at about 50 kb/s from your website and other files straight from the web are the same. I have no problems. I am able to search fine. People can upload from me at about 7 kb/s. I have tried downloading a lot of different files even different types from limewire and nothing still. I was told to delete the preferences folder "c:/documents and settings/.limewire" I did this after closing all accounts of limewire completely and I restarted my computer and nothing happened the problem continued just as before. I would appreciate to here something from you. If you can't help atleast let me know you can't.

- I have windows xp 2002
- Windows service pack 2
- On my old computer I had downloads of 50 kb/s
- I have mcaffee virus protector and firewall. The privacy service is uninstalled.
- My computer can easily handle the download load because it is new and rather quick compared to my old computer and it could handle the load. I mean what computer can't handle a download of .01234 kb/s. Maybe like on of those really old apples with the green and black screens. LOL
- I have the latest Java stuff JRE...

Anything else that would help... I can try and get whatever anyone needs. Please help I am desperate though. grr... limewire. I paid for pro and this is what I get... Nothing.... LOL I like it... if it would download things for me.
