I viewed the link the only thing i really got from it was that i needed to disable the UPnp and set up my firewall for a manual port which i did all that, and tryed using different versions of java. I can't really give an update as to the progress bc i'm only currently downloading one file and its still slow as dirt only dl'ing from like 2 people an they both maybe dialup users so its anyones guess but i'm happy to hear any fresh opinion

i guess my dl speeds are somewhat normal i did have it up over 20kbs which is still slow as poop but i just have to keep reminding myself that i can only dl as fast as others can upload.......
