Default slow torrent download speed all of a sudden

I have been using Limewire to download torrents in the past but in the last few weeks I haven't been able to get a decent download speed. I can connect to 20-50 hosts at once but the speed only ever gets to around 5Kb/s. Files I search for in Limewire are still downloading at the same speed they used to - its only torrents that have become slow.

Any ideas?

1. OS version? WINDOWS VISTA
2. What firewalls you have? TWO - NORTON 360 (ENABLED), WINDOWS FIREWALL (DISABLED)
3. How much ram? 2GB
4. Hard Disk space available? 80GB
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) ADSL BROADBAND
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? D-LINK DSL-G604T
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? HOUSE
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LIMEWIRE 4.14.10, JAVA 1.6
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? DODO
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? [B******ED FINE[/B]
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. NO
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. NEW PROBLEM, HASN'T HAPPENED BEFORE
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? NO, ONLY DURING INITIAL CONNECTION

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? UPnP IS ENABLED, NOT SURE ABOUT PORT FORWARDING
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall NORTON 360
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). AUSTRALIA
