Your isp may have throttled you down, your neighbor may be using your wifi, your router buffer might be full (reboot it), you might have p2p software on your system (that free music isn't free, you know) or somone might have turned you into a zombie to distribute spam. There is nothing PHYSICALLY wrong with your puter.

Could be any number of things. Like Robb said, some ISPs (only the bad ones) will throttle your internet useage for excessive downloading. More likely, though, if you are on a network, someone else might be using all the bandwidth either intentionally or without their own knowledge. Also, if the network is wireless, make sure it is secured with a WEP encryption key so that other people can't get on your network and steal your bandwidth.

Your ISP has probably throttled you for excessive usage. It happens when you download more than they want you to...
