Hey man I just got on her to do the same thing! I play on mplayer too. My hosting stinks too. I have a p3 450mhz with 160 pc100 ram. I have a faster machine then my friends and I still host crappy. i think it has to do with registry settings man. Anyone help?

A lot of times the problem with hosting and having a cable/asdl is it is to fast for your friends. If they have a regular 56k dial up what happens is your machine is having to resend the information because the dialup users can't download what you are sending fastenough. Do you have problems when your friends host? I found it was better to let a dialup user host when I ran into this.
