probably your isp sucks... or its the fact that your trying to download from a server that is across an ocean... or more probably, both.
then there is the possiblity you didn't set your connection up right, therefore making it your fault.

The server you're downloading from's probably just overloaded. Find a different server.

I'm downloading it now at 21kb/s - its cause there are many ppl downloading it - so the servers bandwidth cant support you all downloading at 170kb/s
