Hello, It is MUCH quicker if you change the settings. Default settings are fail-safe. You can however change "number of simultaneous downloads" to 5 or more. BY setting it say to 10 you can get 10x speed up, however Yahoo may block you after some excessive downloading and you will need to revert to defaults and wait a couple of minutes for Yahoo to unblock you.
