This is quite good, But when I download of torrent sites it isn't so good. I use Azeurus, with the sites Torrent box, And torrent reactor, And I only get speeds like 50kb to 100kb. Also I keep getting disconnected not that often, but every hour or so. Can anybody help?

Voodoo please shorten your sig by 5 lines.

And I find using Firefox and the adblock plugin really rockets speeds.

Hehe Voodoo, see what I mean by you'd get bothered by the sig thing?

Anyways, if you connect to a torrent, your internet speed might be able to recieve data that fast, but if there connection is any slower, like a 56k for instance, yuor internet connection won't be able to grab it any quicker since yours has to wait for that one to send out the small amounts of data.

I'll shorten my sig .

I've tryed about 10 torrents now (All about 4 GB in size) and got slow speeds in all of them . Thanks for the help anyways.

well you cant make ppl give you stuff. also since suprnova.org got shut down there arent many ppl still using torrents. they can go pretty fast tho
