Default Cannot download the same file twice ?

Here is my little story.

I was downloading multiple files at once when my computer suddenly crashed for whatever reason. It restarts , everything seems fine , I start LW again and low and behold "Limewire was unable to resume some of your downloads." or something like that.

Well , I was a little irritated but hey , I can always go get them again right ? Apparently not.

When I search for the file I get the same results as before , the 4 Stars with 200+ which I had downloaded before is still there (as it should be) but instead of the 4 stars , there is a folder icon. Having downloaded alot of files before I know that it turns into that icon when you have downloaded the file already.

What I did NOT know was that unlike the Incomplete icon , this one can't seem to be reinitiated. Everytime I click on it or right-click Download/Download As , it says I already have that file , which I obviously do not.

Now I want to know : is there a way to start that download anew or not ?

Normally I would simply get the 2nd best result and go with that...but in this case , only the one I already "downloaded" has more than 1 host or is the right file type or file size.


Help....please...
