Hi, Swabby

I specified a download limit and it solved my problem with 1.3.5
Thanks for the prompt reply.

I am very surprised You are having any problems at all resuming!
My experience has been limited mostly to large mpg video files
(30- 600MB) where resumeability is a must. The only time I have
ever found a file that could not be resumed was in 1 instance in
which I inadvertantly let my C: drive run completely out of free
space during a download. Gnucleus notified me of my error right
before it crashed and I consider that to be complimentary, given
the circumstances. The file being downloaded at the time was
not resumeable although Gnucleus did attempt to resume the
download it reported a corrupted download file in the "extended
info" upon connection and wouldn't finish the file thereby saving
the wasted time and bandwidth of resuming what would have
obviously been a corrupted finished file. I have sucessfully resumed
downloads that were interrupted due to network disconnections,
Gnucleus crashes( yes , I tried to limit upload bandwidth ) , and
even due to power failures (no UPS). IMHO the unequalled resume
capabilities of Gnucleus set it apart from all the other gnutella clients.
