Question A strange phenomenon just occured

I had just finished downloading a movie (about 708 Mb's).
It started to verify contents as usual, and counted to 98%.
Then the whole program jammed, and i couldn't do a thing.
I tried the ctrl/alt/delete thing (a.k.a. "The Swedish button"),
which clearly showed the program as "running".
Then, as if touched by a magician's wand, the thing started again,
now downloading from 4 hosts at a startingpoint of 96%. ?????
Minutes before it showed 100% and verifying up to 98% ????
Can anyone give a rational explanation to this?

PS.: Just now i'm currently downloading from 1 host t a dl-speed of 0 Kb/s, and with no estimated end-time. DS.
