1) Have you subscribed to 'Sky By Broadband'? If yes, what Sky By
Broadband does is it downloads the movies you have requested everytime
you go on the internet. You DO NOT have to be logged in to Sky By
Broadband to download movies, once you go online it automatically
begins downloading the movies at super speeds taking up a lot of your
bandwidth. The only way to stop this is by logging into Sky By
Broadband and deleting the movies. If you delete the movies directly
from your hard drive, Sky By Broadband begins to download them again,
so, the only way to actually delete the movies is by logging into the
Sky By Broadband software and deleting it from there.

OK, so it downloads at full pelt, but surely if you know this you can
add a new movie at night and let it download overnight, rather than
add in the morning and "suffer" low speeds. Once the movie is on
your PC/box (sorry, don't have Sky services so don't know which
thing actually holds the downloaded movies) then it will not be a
regular problem, as it won't be downloaded again and again, will it?
