Thank you for your help

    Hello,

    On the Internet, download speed depends on two factors:
    -The size of the file
    -Your connection
    *Your connection speed is very important; if you're on 56K, that's normal.
    *The quality of your connection depends on your Internet Service Provider and the physical characteristics of your line (http://www.degrouptest.com)

    After that, it might be your PC that's lagging, but for me, it only starts happening at around 12MB/s :p

    Cheers!
