Got a firewall? Got browser toolbars?  Got spyware?  Got messengers or p2p's running?  Got any other downloads running?

shut all down and retested 5.7-5.8-6.4 without anything up

opened all back up cept for the outpost and I am getting 6.4-5.7-5.8

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 6408 Kbps about 6.4 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB)
Download Speed is:: 782 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net/ (server2)
Test Time:: Sat Dec 17 00:34:39 EST 2005
Bottom Line:: 114X faster than 56K 1MB download in 1.31 sec
Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 90.77 % faster than the average for host (adelphia.net)

I think the problem is OUTPOST is there some better settings for it or something?

btw thanks for the insight. I knew all that would hog it, but it never has in the past, and it doesn't for any other testers, so i overlooked it.

thanks man.

It all depends on what kind of activity they're up to, and how you have them configured.  Shutting them down is simply the easiest way to remove this from the equation.  As for the Outpost, try deleting the logs and restarting your computer.  There may be something corrupt in there.  Otherwise, try turning features off one-by-one and see what most affects your speed.
