So you're on a private IP. Is your friend on a private one as well? That means you probably wouldn't have a direct conection between the both of you but go through a server instead (Experts: Is that possible? Does the MSN protocol allow for file transfers through the MSN server or must it always be direct?). Maybe the server you're going through imposes bandwith limitations? If possible, try a direct connection between 2 real IPs, Ie no NAT, proxy, ... in-between. -- HaJo Schatz <hajo@xxxxxxxx> http://www.HaJo.Net PGP-Key: http://www.hajo.net/hajonet/keys/pgpkey_hajo.txt
