I hav ******* dialup internet which is 56K and I use Limewire and my friend has the exact same stuff as I do, I am wondering why my download speed is between 0 and 2 Kb and his is between 4 and 6 Kb. Why is this? If there are settings i should know about that make my downloads faster than what they are now, please let me know asap.Thanks please help me, it is very fustrating because it is soo slow.

First off, for P2P programs, 56K sucks. Been there, done that. I used cable, which was expensive and now have DSL and am very happy with it. There are many DSL options out there starting at 14.95 a month which is highly competitive with any of the dial-up ISP's. Investigate them instead of trying to optimize a dead horse. It will be so much easier on your mind. As an example, I am DLing 6 files@129 to 169 KB/s which is truly amazing. I am also using Beta .35
