Online gaming and your "ping"?
Im constantly playing battlefield 1942 online but the srver i play on has a ping limit of 175 or you get kicked 
My ping averages at about 140 so im usually ok but not always.
is there any programmes or anything else i can do to lower my ping?

If you are on broadband and the server is in the UK/Europe your ping should be between 25 and 65ms! Something is wrong somewhere, turn off all downloading rubbish and make sure no-one else in the house is downloading/uploading as well.

Use a UK server then, it is the best option! I've not played that game but you can usually sort the server list by Ping/Latency and find the quickest ones 
175ms is worse than some 56k modems

you have turbo jeeps and use mountains as ramps to fly accross the maps in the jeep

what broadband provider you using, AOL?
i used to be able to get 90ms pings on a 56k modem when correctly utilised (quakeworld mind, wont get nuffing below 120 on anything modern) so yours SUCKS
on CS:S i normally get between 20 and 40ms... and that's un-tweked, all defaults
