The torrent is bound to decrease in speed over time. When you start out, you are not only downloading from the seeds, but the peers as well. When you have as much as (or more than) the peers, you are only downloading from the seeds, and the peers begin to download from YOU.

Or, I'm pretty sure thats how it works anyway. Torrents always start out fast, and sometimes even stall out at higher %'s. Good luck man :]

I can't belive the lengths I'm going to to get this effing WoW patch.

It crashed on me twice as a straight download (just went from 80-100% in a sec) so I've had to come in to work on an effing SATURDAY to Bit Torrent it, and it's gonna take another 6 hours.

*cries*

Why do you use the PC at work for that stuff O.o.Faster connection?

Basically.

Limited minutes, and very limited dl speed at home.
