    1) Scaper dont be so rude, or cuss, lucky im nice and didnt infract YOU (take it as a warning) I know your just trying to help out and all, and thanks, but please be NICE at SRL

    2) MasterBB please dont post unless you can help with the problem

    @Scaper, might be your ISP, might be Rapidshare. Have you made any changes to your comp recently? Why not try a system restore. Also dont base your DL speed on just Rapidshare. Test your speed on http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ (when your speed is 'normal') and then if anythings slow test it again and compare. That's about all i can say from the info you have given us, hope it gets better soon. (Also some ISPs limit your DL speed if you DL too much each month, that may also be the case)

    Your ISP could have capped your internet download speed. ISOs, I wonder..

    ^this.

    Also be careful you didn't go over your bandwidth limit and your ISP is now removing your speeds.

    Thats just criminal. They would get alot of "average joes" this way, who wouldnt be aware that you can get out of it so they'd just pay up...downright ridiculous.

    I guess you're just trying to help, but you wouldn't have to apologize if you had just read through a few posts
