what's wrong with adobe? giving me no more than 30kb/s for a 10mb+ file? :|
went to download.com and got a pdf viewer...when i went to 11th page, it wants me to buy it. couldn't get the crack for it. :|
fire up my desktop(using laptop now) to retrieve the adobe acrobat 6.0 pro at 7mb/s with my crossover cable :D:):p

Transferred: Acrobat6pro.bin 392.39 MB in 01:19 (5,039.93 KBps) <--- Priceless after all frustration!

that's it? I downloaded on a friend's computer that just got comcast HSI installed last night at about 350 KB/sec :).


EDIT: I just d/led it at 275 KB/sec. Maybe your node is being overused.
