Default A similar problem to everyone else.

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Vista 32 Premimum
2. What firewalls you have? Just Windows own, but it's down.
3. How much ram? One gigabyte
4. Hard Disk space available? 208 gb
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Linksys WAG54GS
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 4.12.6 Pro, Java 1.6.0_01
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? TalkTalk
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? Yes it worked.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Just happened since I got a new PC with Vista.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Just the blue world icon.

I'm trying to download some movies and the download speed does not go above 9kb.

P.s. my anti-virus is AVG.

TalkTalk is known to shape bandwidth, see this thread: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...light=talktalk

For more info, use the forum search to look for TalkTalk.

Got Limewire Beta and reinstalled the latest Java.

This morning 7:30 GMT I got 47kbs.

This afternoon back to 0 - 2 kbs.

The weird thing for me is that I have Episode 18 of [edit] which I downloaded in March on Limewire and Talktalk was the ISP then.

Well I'll find out tomorrow morning what happens next.

Could be they're only shaping your bandwidth at peak use times. Then not during off peak times. You may have to do all your d/loading at night.
