Hi, Need help downloading
 
Hi, I've been using limewire for a while now and i am having a little problem. When i try to download movie's with a size of 500MB or more, it will never start. It will just keep going on to finding more sources and stuff like that even with 50+ users. When i try to download something with less than 300 MB they work and i get great speeds. Can anyone please help me with this problem?

There are fake files on the network which won't ever download...they'll sit connecting for a while then go to 'need more sources'. Maybe these are what you're seeing? Very often, these fakes show a huge number of sources.
Always check a file with Bitzi before download (click on link for more info)
How to use Bitzi

Search again, vary your search terms. Go for a file with 10 sources or less, or those with a modem source (providing the Bitzi rating is ok:wink:).
A file with heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating is often a fake.
