Well the screenshot doesn't show any reason (I don't think) why your transfers are going slow. Have you tried taking a speed connection test to see how fast your connection is, compared to how fast it should be?

So when do you see that? Every time you send/receive a file? Before or after?

It could just be a problem with the WLM servers.

Try reading this thread, may come in handy.

Edit: Do you have ZoneAlarm?

Try disabling your firewall and opening ports 6891-6900 if you have a router.

you may need to allow that program by opening the port that it uses. according to Micro$oft http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/ports.asp
you need to open ports TCP 6891-6900 Required only for file transfers.

That's all I can suggest for now. Hopefully it's just a temporary problem and should be back to working order in a few days?
