Default I have cabel, so why is my download so slow
Erm, I have Cable, so how come my current download speed it topping at 7kb/s- 8kb/s? Or is this just the max speed for free accounts? Sorry i dont use limewire that often so im a bit confused

Is your LW set up for optimal performance? There are lots of tips here

Is your connection ok, with no firewall icon showing?
Are you sure it's not an issue with your ISP??

Don't get Pro until you're sure that Basic will work ok & until you know your ISP isn't filtering p2p
