Well, I've finally gotten the updater to consistantly download at 60~72 kb/s (at this point, I'm not going to be picky about how fast it's going, just that it is going.) The bad news is I had to disable my firewall in order to get it to do so.

Obviously, I can't turn the firewall off every time I need to run an update, so I'm wondering if there is anyone out there who knows how to set it to the correct ports. I am running Kaspersky Internet Security 2011.
