How to download faster?
 
Is there a way of downloading movies from limewire faster? Im downloading 1 at 20 kbs and its taking me like 8 or 9 hours per movie. I have time warner cable internet. What i want to know is there some magic setting that can change my dl rate? sounds like a dumb question to me, but who knows. I already downloaded the pirattes of the caribean 2, simpsons movie, rush hour 3, finding nemo, and im working on national treasure 2 right now. All within a day and a half lol.

Short answer no. And don't download from Limewire.

Why not? I cant get a good explanation of how to use bittorrent so im stuck with what i can get. I am using the bitzi site to check everything i dl first. and i run virus scans and adware scans everyday.

+1 works great. If you want faster downloads then download limewire pro off of the limewire you have now.
