Demo download stopping and slowness

Hi there, I started downloading the demo for Star Trek online last night. After noticing how intolerably slow it was, I decided to leave it running over night, which worked well (39%, yay?) However, it soon stopped downloading at 39.49% and has been that way for...about 3 1/2 hours. Any suggestions? Or should I just leave it running until time stops? :D

    Keep in mind that you are using a torrent to download the game so it is almost completely dependent on peers providing a connection. You can try downloading it with a different torrent client or from Steam.

    Ah yes, the steam download is much better. Also, as soon as I got on the Steam homepage, I noticed that ST:O was on sale for 75% off! Well played Cryptic...well played. :p
