Download speed throttled

I think my download speed is bein throttled... Earlier today I was downloading the installer file for a game I purchased at a rate of 2.2MBps but later on in the evening after i got home from work I noticed MAJOR lag in Ventrilo most pings over 4000 with the occasional spike to 31000+, so i went to speedtest.net(20mins ago) and ran multiple tests and for every test the download speed was 0.06Mbps there's a huge difference between 2.2 and 0.06 and that all happened within a 6 hour period any help or a fix would be greatly appreciated
