Don't go on anything else. Just leave your computer for a bit untill the downloads done.

What are you downloading?

If you are using a P2P connection, his downloads might have more uploads, therefore a faster speed to him.

There could be a few different causes of your downloads going slow.

The first is if you are using wireless internet. Wireless internet is much slower than actually having your computer plugged into the router or modem. By doing this, it will definitely improve the speed of your downloads and your internet in general.

If you are using P2P, such as LimeWire, the free version of the software is often not as fast as the "PRO" or version you have to pay to use. If you buy the appropriate software, it could definetly speed up the downloads on the client.

Perhaps your computer has too many active programs, while the download is happening. This would require more of the system to be used on these programs while the download was happening. This would affect your download speeds, quite a bit.
