although i leave my comp on all the time..cept to restart with low resourses..or the bugger disconnects...i have unlimited uploads and unlimited bandwidth checked..my comp crawls at snails pace if there are a lot of uploads..downloading is slowed right down and as for going onto other sites....its worse than when i had a 56k modem..in fact typing this i have to wait 15 secs b4 for it to catch up.... :angry:
