Default Windows Vista Downloading Problem

I've been having a lot of problems downloading large files from the internet. For example, when I try and download large music files through Azureus, my computer seems to lose its internet connection for a short time. When it eventually starts downloading (if ever), it goes very, very slow. I've also had this problem trying to download WoW. I thought this was a firewall problem at first but it persisted even after i turned all of them off. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks.

He didn't ask for help stealing content. There are plenty of legal downloads out there. Don't understand why you think he can't ask for help with this.

I was having a similar problem lately and it was my security software doing it.

Azureus is a torrent client, the discussion of which is discouraged by 2+2. He didn't say "downloading WOW updates" he said "downloading WOW" which combined with the torrent problems led me to believe he was asking for assistance in pirating intellectual property. Which 2+2 doesn't want people getting help with here.

If the discussion of torrent clients is discouraged by 2+2, then I apologize. I didn't know. I didn't think discussion of legal software would be a problem. My mistake.
