what internet connection do you have?
do you have a firewall? or run the windows XP firewall?
is your firewall setup corectly to allow your BT client access?
have your forwarded ports on your software firewall?
is your modem conected to a router?
have you forwarded ports within the router?
your isp may be blocking or throttling the default BT ports.
are you trying to D/L films that are popular?
do these films have seeds?
Some films have very few seeds and mostly leechers, which will slow the download times.
Thare are many things that can affect BT downloads, most of which I've listed above. What I'd sugest is finding a BitTorrent faq and having a read through it.
