Angry downloading problems

I am having problems downloading movies but not music. I have windows xp with cable modem. I don't have any firewall issues as far as I know. I have never had this problem before. This started last night. It just keeps saying connecting and that is it nothing else. Any suggestions????

Movies are more difficult to download than music. how many sources are coming up if any?

Also there are a lot of fake movie files on the network, especially if their speed is T3 or Higher. Try looking up the file with Bitzi(How to use Bitzi Web Lookup ...) If LW shows that a lot of people are sharing the file and there's nothing in Bitzi, thats a good sign that the file is probably fake.
Also here's another good read: Corrupt Audio - T3 Spammers; mp3 Bit-Rates Versus File Sizes

I don't seem to know what the problem was but it is working fine now. Thanks anyway. It was even with 30 or more hosts for the download it was happening with. It didn't matter how many.
