Don't use a multi-stream download manager with the store, you could cause it to shut down the download. (if you've already started, let it finish though, but you may not be able to re-download) I'm really surprised you're getting such a slow speed, as far as I know the DR servers have plenty of spare capacity right now. I think this may be specific to your ISP/location.

Nope slow in the UK for me now 88.5KB/ Sec[;)]

[Barb]

hmm some 30-40kB/s ... time jumps from 2,5 hours to 5 hours ... [:D]

[Kumppi]

Getting 120kb/sec in Finland. Downloading as fast as possible [:D]

[Lützow]

Weird. I tried several times now. It always starts with 2mb/sec and drops to like 15k/sec within a minute. [:@]

What is that download manager some people use?

[Miller]

A solid 400kb in Northern England, installing now.......beer in hand!

[Sardaukar]

Solid 149kb/sec here in Malta. [8D]

[Rapunzel]

I am uing the free download manager. Speed is exallerating (90kb/sec). Possible rate would be 500kb/sec. I had never problems with matrix games and downloads before.

Not sure, but I assume DR is using several ftp servers and with some bad luck you catch a busy one.

That said, how often one can restart a download before they cut him down?

[Chad Harrison]

No problems on the west coast, 150 KB/s - which is my max download speed available here.

14 minutes 30 seconds to go . . .

Before I start whouping on Speedy [:D]
