Limewire slows Internet Speed? Sep 19, 2006
I observe that my ADSL connection becomes pathetically slow everytime Limewire is running.

Any suggestions on how to overcome this?

Thanks.

Limit the number of uploads/downloads that limewire will allow.

Try ARES Sep 19, 2006
Hi Kensus

Why dont you try this software 'ARES' .Trust me its far more better than limewire and it also doesnt affect the speed.Try it out.

Good Luck

yeah Ares is pretty good but slows down my laptop a lot when I use it... Then again it's a frickin laptop and I've got a crap load of applications running on it, not to mention SQL Server...

Yes Nick

you are right?But as you said,it depends on how many applications are running on your laptop.I usually stop unwanted services on my laptop when downloading.I gives me faster performance even in limewire (m using that too but in special searches)..
