i’ve tried a few other sites and they dont have a fraction of the speed or selection. i’ve also spent a long time going through every option in the preferences cutting down the chances of something crazy happening as muc has possible.

I use Limewire, MySpace (love FireFox developer tools), and YouTube (other tools).

I also use torrents (uTorrent is the application). I use a private torrent site which is invite only, meaning speeds are ALWAYS high since you have to maintain a ratio. None of that getting 90% done and then it just stops.
