Default Slow download.

I'm having a bit of a problem with downloading. I can't seem to download any faster than 9KB/s. When I had Kazaa I used to be able to do about 20. Sometimes 30. But here it's mostly 2KB/s and that's when I can connect. Most times I'm waiting for a busy host or it can't be found. I had those problems with Kazaa but never to the extent I have here.

Can anyone help me? I have Broadband and the LimeWire Pro version but I'm still having problems. Is there anything I need to do?

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

What kind of connection you have (I know, broadband, but I mean the actual dld/upload speeds)?

Yep. Same results here. Definitely not happy with Pro. Any tuning suggestions?

I think this should help you
Make sure that the Java web plugin is set to the latest version

First open you control panel
then select other control panel options on the left of your screen
Then select Java Plug-in
Then click the Advanced tab on the top
Make sure that JRE 1.4.2_04 is selected
Then click Apply

That should help you
it seems to want to use the previous version after installing the newest java

My downloads were horrible until I found this solution
