I'm curious if there is a general slowdown in Liveupdate for some reason this evening. I need to download a huge liveupdate (approx 200 MB), which would normally take me between 1-2 minutes, but at the current rate could take more than 30 minutes, even though Liveupdate has 4 simultaneous connections to akamai servers. It was so slow I phoned my ISP to ask if there was any slowdown in my system, which there wasn't. And I did a test download of a large NIS install file in 30 seconds or so. So it's something peculiar to Liveupdate, perhaps the servers at akamai, causing it to be slow. Maybe Norton is pushing out a lot of updates today, slowing the servers?
