I'm hearing that LW is detecting the corrupt file very early in the download, like at 0, 5, or 15%. Is this true? This is very odd. Normally corruption won't be detected until near the end of the file.

A few questions: what version of Java are you running? Did you install 1.4? Was LimeWire swarming before you saw the error, i.e., did it say "downloading from N hosts", where N>1? How fast is your connections speed in the Tools->Options->Speed window? Finally, do you have a lot of incomplete files that you might be resuming to?

Thanks,
