Default My downloads keep aborting

I'm having problems with downloads of large avi files (350mb). I began downloading 6 of them, after about two hours three showed up as having been aborted. I clicked download file again, and it started again, for another half hour, then one aborted, then three more. this morning one file was downloaded complete, the other 5 had aborted during the night at 87%, 64%... ... 12%. I am new to limewire, but not to these sorts of files, and I haven't had these issues before. any ideas??? I've had a look through several pages in this thread and can't see a similar issue. could it have something to do with my firewall? if so, how come not all the files aborted? If I eventually do manage to download them, will they be corrupted from stopping and starting?
Thanks

Here are a few threads to read through. See if any fixes suggested help you

*Yes, it's possible that it has something to do with your firewall. Make sure your firewall's properly configured. You'll find links for firewall config within a couple of those threads.
