What you are probably seeing is that LimeWire requests chunks multiple times. - That will happen if a request was not successful because your BearShare client was busy. |
well guess what, kids - it's redownloading for some reason!
the log entries i'm pulling out indicate that bearshare actually sent that chunk of the file, not just that limewire requested it.
and in the case i analyzed, all log entries were checked so they were for that filename being downloaded by that IP/port for that version of limewire, and they were all part of the same "session" as far as i could tell.
