When you say you had to "reformat", I presume you mean you shutdown and
switched off your computer? Reformatting means that you clear everything
off the hard drive and have to re-install your operating system and all
your programs. 

You have two problems that I can see:
1) If you are using a dial-up modem, you should have a smaller number
for the outputBandwidthLimit parameter in your configuration file. The
default of 12288 (bytes per second) is for broadband connections with an
upload speed of 256kbits/sec. For a 56K modem connection, you should use
a value of around 4000. 
2) Whenever you startup a freenet node, it will take some time to learn
the network again. For the first hour you will probably only be able to
access very popular content. For this reason, Freenet isn't very useful
to modem users at the moment, but the problems are being worked on!
