If you can download at about 300 KB/s, and upload at 150 KB/s, LW will treat your connection like a T3

at 300 KB/s, it would take about 20 seconds to download a 5 MB file.

Not without downloading it. You can preview it before it is finished, but you can't tell just by looking at the search result.

You could try looking the file up with Bitzi , but I don't know how many music files are rated because of the small file size. Also don't use the limewire media player because it isn't very good.

Default i think

well it depends on how much hosts there is because limewire cannot download fast coz its a sharing tool.i hope you enjoy your internet connection unlike me, i pay 70$ per month for 56 Kb/s connection speed and i cannot use limewire or i'll have to pay 100$ per month for port opening subscription so i'll use limewire in my memories... so please enjoy and i'll be here in this ignurant place...

Wow things are tough there if they block ports for simple dial up connection aka modem connection. Are you sure you haven't checked all options: Connection problems? Check here first! (sorry english only)

BTW what did you mean by ignorant. I had an afghanistan friend who died there 20 yrs ago, run over by a tank the afghan's had captured from the russians. He was a photographer/cameraman. Well .. he spoke french, & some english. I saw the video of his last moments ... a mishap & misjudgement of the tank's speed!

Default hi there

first i dont know whats a lined connection but it seems like a line connection and unfortunitly as i said this is an ignutent place and there is nothing the country offer but a 33.6 Kb/s connection which is only a phoone lines but used for internet and this is what makes this place ignurant, but some companies with high proces give you 56Kb/s connection...
