Extremely slow torrents.

I got a new computer and the torrents on it are going painfully slow. I tried several different torrents of the same sort of file, and went for the ones with the most seeders I could find. But one of them hasn't even started yet, after I added it hours ago. One still says it has 2 more days, is going 0kb/s and is at 80%. I was thinking, maybe it's just going that slow because there's 4 computers connected to the same network, but I doubt 1 more computer would make that much of a difference.

i can't really say about the it without actually trying to download the same file.. sometimes the servers may be too busy to let you in... or your torrent downloader may not be working properly...or there might be something wrong with your computer.. either one of this or you are a damn sorry sight...;) welcome to mylot
