Does VM always slow down on a sunday?

My first week on VM and I'm down about 30% in speed today compared to previous days.

My VM 4Mb internet is solid 24/7.

What speed are you on? Which area do you live in?

Who'd have thunk it, a VM connection with a higher Upload than Download speed? :p

Don't use speedtest.net. It's absolutely swamped lately and it just wont give out a correct reading. Try http://www.speedtest.bbmax.co.uk/ its constantly given me the correct speeds.
To be perfectly honest though these websites usually aren't the best way to test your connection coz it only depends whether their servers are busy or not.
I use a download manager for normal downloads and the rest I use usenet.
