Give alittle more information, we are not your ISP, nor are we mind readers here.
What kind of conenction do you have? Dial-up, DSL, Cable??
What speeds are you getting when transferring a file to your friend?
Are you or your friend downloading something else while your trying to send them a file? Are you surfing the net at the same time.
Remember that your speed is a total. not per connection, So if you're on dial-up and getting a 40kbps connection and surfing and sending a file to your friend it will slow you down a bit. or if your friend is playing an online game and your sending him a file, yes it will be slower.

Are those people your trying to connect to, running a firewall? As a firewall will blocking incoming connections for the user running one.
