What client are using? Whats your interent connection speed? :unsure:

[johnnytightlips2]

the speed of the downloads mainy depend on how much seeds there are and i feel ur pain cuz i always download rare movies and it takes about three days to download. :) :) :) :)

looks like the one suprnova was passing around with spywear/adwear I&#39;d stay away from that client <_<

Try http://www.themxdomain.com/ it has a lot of stuff in here and a lot of clients for you to check out. Find the 1 thats best for you. My fav. is Azureus, But it is hard to work for a noob.
