It looks like I'm not the only one having this problem of resumed partially complete downloads restarting at 0%. I've concluded that it happens when people move the partially downloaded file out of the Incomplete directory and move it back in. (There would be good reasons for doing this, such as temporary solutions for low hard disk space, or for resuming the download on another computer.)

All these people below are having the exact same problem:

Shouldn't this bug be addressed in Limewire's development? I've gone from every version from 4.2 to 4.8, and the problem still occurs.

It would make more sense if Limewire could detect the file and determine the correct percentage of the download that has been completed so far.
