My Limewire is running super slow. 5kbs (It used to run at 25kbs)
I haven't changed anything also I've checked all the settings - all the same as before.
So what's up with that? How can i make it faster?

All the malware that your piracy has given you requires bandwidth.

the more files you gather the more ppl are downloading your files, go to settings and put your upload slots to a low # and your upload speed at a slow rate, same happened to me
limewire aint always slow, i can download movies at over 100kb/s many times
you dont have to spend the money to get limewire pro you can just download it off limewire, serves the dummies at limewire right

Maybe its the amount of users, or the area you're in might be overloading with other people on the net.
If you're surfing the net, it will take longer to download something off limewire.
The number of hosts might have something to do with it too.
Higher number of hosts = faster downloads

a router or software firewall is probably blocking it .. possibly a hardware firewall in ur modem ... and possibly u picked up a trojan ... maybe all the above ...

Do you have the port it's using open on your router?

Because it isn't as good as Ares.
