Hi.

When I stream a video off one of these sites it goes really slow. I have to wait about 5 minutes to watch a 1 and a half minute video. I've done internet speed tests and it gets 2mbit. Rapidshare also downloads at 250kb/s. Is it just these sites or me, because my friend said they downloaded really quick. Can someone test this video out and see what the downloading's like?



It takes about 5 minutes for me.

Thanks.

Which browser are you using?
What security software?
Do you have any content filtering software running?
If you boot into safe mode with networking does the problem persist?

Firefox.

I don't bother with security software.

Que?

Yeah, still pretty slow.
