If you are using Shaw Secure the results will be screwed though. If using XP you can open the Task Manager and click on the network tab to watch the actual download.
Edit: If all else fails call Shaw. |

i would suspect something else... possible bad signal, a fire wall issue maybe? or possibly an issue with your PC. |
