OK. I did a little experiment: 90% of a longer vid had already been downloaded when interrupted and then killed. Later, the same fiile came up, but had no hyphen. I stopped that download and in the Finder renamed a copy of the previously downloaded file with the new name and deleted the new one. Only the Limewire T-number then showed up. I then renamed the file in Limewire and restarted the download. Now, Limewire is apparently rewriting the file, since the KB does not change, but the file is active, though with a different name after the T-number.

Langer Rede kurzer Sinn (in a nutshell): This doesn't work and I have over 150 MB of junk that Limewire will not do anything with.

I have often put aliases in the shared folder and renamed them when I see that those files carry slightly different names. I don't know what Wintel users can do.

I think this is the weakest feature of Limewire. Redownloading a relatively small mp3 because of a different name is one thing, a 200 MB is another.
