Hello!

This is how requery sent works:

If you find a file on a host and initiate a download procedure but that host has disconnected or closed LW's connection to get a better Gnutella network connection by continously disconnect and reconnect to get connected to hosts running LW and not Morpheus or Gnucleus it will result in the Requery sent message and LW will now initiate a process of continuosly checking when that host is once again reachable and not beyond your reach.The success of the download depends on if that host has a Static IP or a Dynamic one if it is Static then ofcourse it will start to download when that host reconnects to the Internet if it is dynamic it will fail ofcourse.But there is a couple of more functions inbedded in this function and that is that about once every 45 minutes LW will check for potentionally new hosts that has the same file by perform a hidden search and then from the result list compare name and file size and if it finds a file that matches almost exactly it will attempt a download from that source.But you can speed that process up and that is if you manually initiate a search and if one of the files in the result list mathces the requery it will attempt a download from that source which sometimes is exactly the same source as before or sometimes a completely new host.So the Requery Sent function is not the same as the busy signal the Requery Sent function is only to be used when you want a file really badly and it is supposed to be used as a most wanted function and it is time consuming but it is atleast more honest then in previous versions of LW where you almost always got the busy signal even if the host was not there.And also do not use the Requery sent function for very large 700MB files like DivX movies because it can result in very large incomplete folders.
