14. not sure but it worked all day after I deleted Mcafee but will go buy the portforward if I have to, and its somewhat easy to set up?

17. Downloaded Limewire right when i got my laptop 4.18.8 I think and I had Frost wire on here but uninstalled that when I got Pro

I have 5 connection bars and it says im sharing 5 files but its bogged down and laggy...feels like my skype almost Should I just shut up and be happy i am connected?

get PG2....use it every time you fileshare..make sure to update it before every use, and also verify that the p2p list isn't empty (this happens every now and again)...it is quite possible that the lagginess you describe is caused by attacks from paid henchmen of the RIAA/MPAA...PG2 will block those attacks

Beware of the big 3 insurance companies in Texas! Read your policies carefully (maybe you'll need a lawyer) Allstate, Farmers & State Farm are overextended and their 'coverage' is worthless...a true waste of your money Read This

Another reason 'might' be if you are downloading Torrents. They can use up a lot of connections which can flood your modem/router/system connection. 'If' my suggestion is correct, keep your torrent downloads limited, not too many at once.
