While searching tick the auto search more box then let it search when your download comes up then start downloading and let it continue searching and then back in traffic when u see your max speed then go back into search and stop the search. Another thing u can do is to pause the download then right-clik it and clik "find more sources" it will search and that should speed up your download. One last thing u can do to speed it up while search align the bandwidth column header by pressing it till the arrow is pointing down then scroll back to the top and get the first file (if your getting music I don&#39;t recommend this last tip).
That should help u if and next time before u post search the board using the search button at the top of the page.

your download speed depends on the # of sources for it and their upload speed, and don&#39;t be fooled by what you see in the search window they are not an indication of who is available for connection , so change supernodes and see if you get lucky also go here (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=69786&st=0&#entry528388)
