As you get toward the end of downloading a large file such as a video file, you will find hosts tend to drop off. This is usually because not everyone has 100% of the file, but you are downloading parts of the file as others are downloading (partial file sharing). Use the 'Get More Results' option occasionally when searching for more hosts. (ie: right-click the search tab & you will see options.) Hopefully you will eventually find someone with that last 1-2%.

You could preview the file to see how much is missing. It might only be the credits at the end of the video. If that's the case, you may wish to cancel from download window & remove from incomplete folder so you can use it.
