Have you ran the tcp optomizer, and cable nut?  Also make sure you connect to the proxy and get rid of viruses, adware, spyware and all that stuff.  If you can, windows update I think helps, (getting sp2).  Other than that, try clearing your history/cache and cookies...Also (for me atleast) Firefox tends to give me about half the download speed than IE.  Im on IA8 89 W 1150

Here are my download speeds (its like evening hours 6:45pm so its sort of slow)
Speed in Opera

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 313 Kbps about 0.3 Mbps (tested with 1013 kB)
Download Speed is:: 38 kB/s

Test Time:: Tue, 03 Jan 2006 18:46:14 GMT-0600
Bottom Line:: 6X faster than 56K 1MB download in 26.95 sec
Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 34.13 % of your hosts average (direcpc.com)
Validation Link:: http://testmy.net/stats/id-JTIP5Q932

Speed in IE

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 243 Kbps about 0.2 Mbps (tested with 1013 kB)
Download Speed is:: 30 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net/ (server2)
Test Time:: Tue Jan 3 18:47:40 CST 2006
Bottom Line:: 4X faster than 56K 1MB download in 34.13 sec
Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 26.5 % of your hosts average (direcpc.com)
Validation Link:: http://testmy.net/stats/id-CO0DGA2PW

Speed in Mozilla

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 121 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 579 kB)
Download Speed is:: 15 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net/ (server2)
Test Time:: Tue Jan 03 2006 18:49:26 GMT-0600 (Central Standard Time)

Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 13.2 % of your hosts average (direcpc.com)

Usually later at night or earlier in the day its about 120-130 download speed.

That looks like the kind of speed I get when I test in Firefox. What browser did you test with?

Thanks for the feedback.
I am using Internet Explorer with Windows 2000
I have run SpyBot, Ad-Aware, Deleted Cookies and Temp files. Nothing showed up and it did not make a difference.

I have not run tcp optimizer or cable nut, where did I get those?

Cablenut can be found at www.cablenut.com.

TCP Optimizer can be found at www.[this.site.has.been.blocked.for.spamming] on the "downloads/patches" page.

Use this file for the Cablenut tweaks: http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=10818.0;attach=9064
Just double click on the file, and they should enter automatically. Then go to "save to registry", exit, and reboot.

They're kol's, but mine can be found here  if you want to try them out.

They aren't custom, but I've used a lot of different tweaks. I use SatSpeed which is a program just like cablenut, but it's easier to set and you have to pay for it.

I said in my post that you have to pay for it. You need to pay $25 for a lifetime membership at www.copperhead.cc

In addition to satspeed, you get more programs available for download (including an FAP moniter), and a membership to their DirecWay support forums.
