Hey,
I just downloaded kazaa lite and when i search for songs, they say 98 users 89 users.. etc (in the upper 80's and 90's) then when i double click them, and i look in my traffic tab, I get only 2 users, most of the time only 1, they start out pretty fast like in the first 50 seconds, but then at the very end, it gets very, very slow, like .2kbps, and i was just wondering, why are my downloads going so slow.
Here are my results of the speedtest

Downstream 186 Kbps (23.3 KB/sec)
True Speed (estimated) 200 Kbps (inc. overheads)
Upstream 137 Kbps (17.1 KB/sec)
True Speed (estimated) 147 Kbps (inc. overheads)

Please help.
John

very strange, you must be downloading pop songs to get that many results

I would try uninstalling K-lite, and getting a copy of K++ 2.0 from www.k-lite.tk

In K++ you can have up to 40 sources, I doubt it will fix your problem, but its worth a try I guess

does your ISP limit your bandwidth?

just thought of something else that could be happening, how high is your participation level? if you dont know what that is, then you should really upgrade to K++ 2.0, it will place you higher in queue lines, so you should find more sources

hey,
Sorry, I meant to say I AM using k++ and all these problems are happening, and no, my ISP does not limit my bandwidth.. And it says that my participation level is 1000 ' supreme being '

right click on the downloads and choose 'Search For More Sources' or 'Find More Sources'

I do.. but It never works... if im LUCKY, i get one more user, but thats all. Also, when im downloading something off the internet, I cant download more than 2 things at a time, I have to wait for one to finish. Just telling u this, incase it makes a difference.
