Glad I could be of help - Tiscali put the block on me a few months ago but at least we can get past it for now!

Thank you for the information 205 I'll give it a go.

I started using Limewire 2 days ago and have also had this problem. However, I also had the same problems using bittorrent and kazaa lite.

I am using xp pro with a sempron processor and a cable modem. I have a feeling the problem could be with my ISP. Could they be throttling my bandwidth deliberately? Or are there problems when you have a dynamic IP address?

I've done that and tried to download a file with > 40 sources but I'm still getting < 10kbps. Any more ideas? We use a router, if that helps with a solution at all.

I've got the same problem with limewire pro. I'm currently behind a router on my wireless network and have followed the portforwarding instructions and switched it to 80, yet the problem remains.

Any other suggestions? more ports to try? anything? ...i really love all the results i get with limewire..but when you cant get past 5kb/s downloading, its not even worth using.
