What speed do you have? If you have dial up then you're very ambitious downlding a movie. LW's performance also improves if you're uplding.
Some hints: After opening LW wait 10 to 20 mins before using. Let it settle down 1st. Also don't use the Resume button on all incomplete files. This will also stress LW & your comp. If you use Resume/Find sources then just apply it to a couple or so at one time.
A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW.
