Understand completely. You are at the mercy of the person you are uploading from. If they have their upload speed set low and a few uploaders of that torrent, it will take FOREVER. Torrents can be slow or fast depends on how many seeders are seeding it. Torrent programs arent usually the slowness, it is users. I use BitLord.
Good Luck

Check the number of seeders for your download. If there aren't any seeders or only seeders with a slow connection, your download will take a while. Patience is a virtue, young yedi!

people in the vicinity is on your network
GET THIS SET TO DISABLED
(GAMES & APPLICATION SHARING )
it dont matter what router you have you need to get
(GAMES & APPLICATION SHARING ) set to disable
is your router safe?
you need to call your (isp) server
they have to get you in to your router home page
then from there ..copy & paste the router home page
into a notepad then save that to a back up cd
now from there they have to take you to the part
where (GAMES & APPLICATION SHARING ) is
then you click on ( GAMES & APPLICATION SHARING) icon
then at the top on the right your see
configure.. you click on configure
then you .. untick the box :
GAMES & APPLICATION SHARING
that is ticked there ...
then you click on
apply
if you have a wireless router
and then ask there where you set up a wpa-security key dont use a 128bit wep key ask to use a wpa- security that is your router security key and you pick the wpa-security key not your (isp)server . just ask them where you set one up they will say use a wep-key ..ignore them you say your going to use a wpa.key and want to know how to set one up and remember you pick the wpa-key not your (isp)server or they will use your network
now you close off the page
and clean out your internet address bar
also do a full anti spyware/adaware/trojand/worm/ virus scan

In my opinion Ccleaner is the number one tool for cleaning your pc. I've been using it for more then a year now and it works very well. You can grab your free copy here http://bitly.com/UrAKnB
