Is it a new release? Does it have heaps of sources (up to 100)? There are fake files around now like this, they'll never connect. Search again, vary your search terms (look for artist, album, actors' names etc rather than title) & try the All Types search. Stay away from files with lots of sources, go for a file with 10 sources or less.

If it's a video file, look it up before download with Bitzi... other users might have rated the file

Yes, it's a video, but there are soo many files, with sources from 90 to 1 and none works, it's just keeping saying "conecting...", it's the "F***y G*y M***: S*****d Story". I don't now what to do

Right-click the top of your Search results window column heading & a context window will appear. Choose to show Vendor/version. Now when your results come in, stay away from RAZA (Shareaza) users because they are very difficult to connect to.

Choose those with 5-20 or so sources under the # column. Also use Bitzi as birdy suggested to verify it's a genuine file.
