Re: unhappy customer..
Check for Trojans, virii, spyware.

Make sure you don't have any bandwidth hogging apps like BitTorrentor similar maxing out your upload.

If you have a wireless router....is it secure?

Try being patient and give VM a call tomorrow.

Or at the very least, post some more details here.
