Yeah, I'm having problems with slow downloads too. I have a cable modem or dsl or isdn or something...anyway, it's faster than a 56k. The downloads I'm getting, when something does actually get through, are like 0kb/sec. Does this maybe have something to do with my computer? I only have a 400mhz P2 with 64mb. So does this affect things. I guess I should mention that Kazaa was just as slow, but with ads.
