Is that a quick speed for NTL 1mb or am I not running on all four cylinders?

Yep, that is around the speed I normally get. According to getright (which can be wrong), I have been downloading at around 130-140Kbytes per second over the last couple of days.

On xp Home sp1 with a 2.8ghz AMD Athlon with 256ddr ram.

Actually , but I do help maintain video editing systems at work. I think you'll find things run a lot smoother if you bung in more RAM (at least another 512 Meg). Just a bit of advice.

PMSL well if someone bothered to ask I would have explained the DVD would be kinda expensive to mail to the USA wont it lmao. So it is uploaded to some webspace paid for by a friend where I then can download it at high speed, then I edit it do a bit of work as they cant do jack all on there system they are not ICT nuts even there website was made by proffesionals hired and maintained by them.

As for the downloading I hit the speed of 156kbs a few times now especailly early morning downloads, perhaps next time if before Aug 1st I will actually screenshot this just to shut u up :o

Right thats that point answered I need to go sort out next download NO I will NOT be giving link to this website as its a personal site for my friend and I to share his home videos, if you must know what they are of as some nosey people may

They are of House surverying which he makes a dvd video of a home then with my editing and voice over and editing out when he falls over swears and bangs his head on a roof beam, we have a perfect video to send to people sometimes annoying i get them and they are just good to send as they are .

AHHh well roll on 1.5mb and NTL raise the caps because Im downloading more and more from this dude. Otherwise net is just used for this forum MSN Messenger and Lycos Chat

Sounds like a somewhat commercial use of the connection to be honest. Oh well...

Cap is not going to be raised, only download speeds.

What are you encoding those in?
You can get about an hour and a half in about 700mb if you encode them in DivX.
