Hi guys,

The issues are detailed on the service status thread (http://status.plus.net) as usual, there'll be another update from Bob today. We were expecting slowdowns due to the streaming as per Dave's blog too.

Sorry about this, we are still working on it.

Thanks for the update.  

{Downloading windows defender now at 8kb/sec}

Hopefully it won't be too long before it's sorted.  I'm rebuilding a PC for a friend, which of course involves windows updates. 3 hours later, and still not got them all.  

Would apple's app-store be included in the slow speed problems? I've just got a new i-phone and installing apps over my wi-fi takes a good 5 mins for even the smallest apps.  As i've not had one I don't know if it's normal or not.

35 mins to download 1v100 on XBL. Shame I wanted to play the previous half hour episode.
