my question is this my isp or sony or somthing on my cpu blocking the download? i have turned off my fire wall and removed my antivirus software.

Trace Routes like that find the "path" of your pings and determine where the problem is by the last place you can ping.

In your case it is 15 165 ms 126 ms 148 ms vl81.sdtermsw-2.sonyonline.net [64.37.144.149] which indicates it is in Sony's network and not your problem =)
