    I find this really odd, and annoying.. if anyone can help me out you officially own.

    Okay, my downloads seems to go very slow sometimes, as slow as 80kb/sec

    This worries me, as my internet, loading pages etc is very fast..

    Though this isnt all the time.. sometimes my downloads are as fast as 500kb/sec
    or with IE sometimes 1mb/sec o.o

    So, can I resolve this? Downloading a 120Mb file isnt to great at 80kb/sec :(

    There are a large number of variables that determine the speed at which something downloads. It's most likely beyond your control.

    My heart bleeds for you.

    Mine was capped at 59k/s average downstream until about a month ago. Try downloading 4GB of Linux ISOs on that.

    Anyway. Grab the DownThemAll Firefox extension- it accelerates your downloads if you use it as your manager (dTaOneClick).

    My downloads are way faster in FireFox than on Bittorrents, I don't complain.

    Location of the file is a big factor, due to this annoying thing that nothing can go faster than the speed of light, downloading something in australia takes longer than something in say france.

    That entirely depends upon where you're located geographically yourself- if you're accessing through an illicit Satellite uplink from the Jungles of Myanmar, you're going to get a better speed from an Adelaide server than an Edinburgh server.
