I am downloading The Matchstick Men. I have been downloading for 3 days and i am only on 29.6%! When I press advanced it tells me some have completed the download! Why is it so slow?!?!

It just depends on who and how many you are connected to.
If you are hooked up to a lot of 56k'ers then it will always be slower than if you are hooked up with loads of people on broadband.Just give it time and it will be OK.

Can u go buy or rent at the store nope u can't and if u could you would be paying for it, well right now u are not. Just pretend u aren't downloading anything.

is it just that bittorrent download thats slow, or every bittorrent download you do.

if its just that one then its probably just leechers ahead of you capping their upload bandwidth, bummer i know but not a lot you can do about it.

If on the other hand it happens on every bittorrent download then if you have a router it is more than likely that. you have to forward ports 6881-to-6999 in your router.

hopefully if you do that then you will see a lot better speeds for your bittorrent downloads.

I see u mean u can't even use bittorrent, so why can't u use it.

if your gonna download a movie get in when theres heaps of seeds...torrents dont have a very long life so u have to get in early

[Gre1]

That's goes for leechers too they help u download more than the seeders.
