ok thanks, trying that. previously my upload rate was unlimited - it was going

around 30KB/s - but that shouldn't effect download speed should it?

It does & should.
If your upload speed comes near to your line capacity, your download will 
starve.

Thanks for clearing that up. I have tried the advice above, using both
btdownloadcurses (which is what i was using originally) and azureus, to no
effect. I am back to btdownloadcurses, using the following options:

btdownloadcurses.py --max_uploads 4 --max_upload_rate 10
SUSE-10.0-CD-OSS-i386-GM.torrent

Patrick mentioned "w/max 4 connects" - does this mean I should be using
--max_connections 4 ?

I'm not firm with those crappy szenes, but I have some portion of general human conciousness. So my guess is to look into the docs and find out if --max_upload_rate is a total or per connection. If you have conserved your natural adversity against reading any strange docs, just start with "--max_upload_rate * --max_uploads" equal to about 80 % of your real upload max. This should give a good download rate in either case, and you then can change parameters while watching.

Cheers -e
