what have you installed since your speed changed?

Did you put a new firewall on your connection?

Do you have a broadband router? Is it set-up to pass through the appropriate ports to your machine?

bit torrent is passed botht hrought my panda antivirus and the windows xp one. no router just got broadband on this pc. it it just strange that its slow allways. does any one know of a fast client or something? or a faster way of donwlaoding torrents thru some sort of other client.

Hey, im a massive user of BT to0.. :p

Most of my friends use Azureus as a BT client, with that program you can adjust how much u want to upload as in the speed of it. Heres the link for you to check out.



Heres another program i also use aswell. its called ABC, basically exactly the same as Azureus.



Hope i've helped in some way.

yea bit tornado also has the function of upload/downlaod thing. but i allways make sure i have a score or + something, but its not the uploading thing its just that my downlaod speeds are lame.

OKiez, well the program sites i've given maybe you should give them a try , ive never used bittornado before so i dont realli know it that well.

Perhaps people arent realli seeding enough anymore or the trackers that tell you the stats are like false....:p
