Yes, yes, but I am refering to those, whadyacallem? Rules. Yes. That's it. Read them.

Awaiting sources is a status that means that basically LW has sort of "given up" on your dld. That means that, in order for the dld to start dlding again, you need to run a search for the file again to see if LW can pick up any new sources. If it won't, then try another file, one with more sources.
Also, patience is a virtue. I still remember when all we had was a friend's comp with a 128Kbps connection. Talk about slow. It took a whole week to dld a 700Meg file if the hosts were on all the time (which was never)
