    Ok, I'm not very good so I need a lot of help. Recently it seems That when i try to download from Limewire I get very very slow speeds. Usually about 3k/s. Up until about a week or 2 ago i was getting between 50 to 100k. My connection usually is about 1mb down. i don't get it. I thought maybe it was spyware or something like that, but none of my programs pick it up. So why such a drastic change in speed?? My browser speeds are still between 90 to 150k at most times. So Hopefully one of you Smart guys can help my Newbie self out.

    Try getting the latest version of Limewire if you haven't already got it.

    Try and use a different port.
    I understand that some ISP's restrict traffic from ports which might be used for downloads like BT 6881 etc.
