Default Discrepancies between Incomplete Dir, Library Win. and D/L Status Win. file sizes???

First, I thank all involved in the development of Limewire. When Napster kind of went schizoid, and my HD crashed (with no backup, of course), I was tearing my hair (the only one I have ) out, wondering if I would be able to replace the missing files. Thank you, LW!

Now, to the problem for you gurus...

This is an example - I have, unfortunately, several instances of the same problem:

According to the D/L Status frame in the Search screen, I have d/l'd 21% of a 908.4 MB file.

Yet, according to the display in the Library screen for Incomplete files, which appears to show, at least for most of the files listed here, what the actual downloaded amount is, I have downloaded 908.4 MB (or 100%) of this file!?

This last piece of info coincides with the file existing in my Incomplete folder, labeled "T-952561120-[filename].mpg," with a size of 930,236 KB.

MY QUESTION: How do I resolve the sizes of files in my Incomplete folder with what is being reported by LW?

P.S. I think it's possible, but cannot be certain, that this problem occurred because of a system/LW crash. Any thoughts on the cause, and a possible prevention of same?

Thanks in advance for any help, and apologies for my long-windedness.

Sincerely,
Cruising Bull
