whenever i try to download large files, generally over 500 MB, occasionally it will state that it is trying host number x & will count up to the number of hits registered on my search...

then when it reaches the last one, it will say awaiting more sources... & if i research the same file again there are still 100+ hosts for this file, & with some files i have tried to download like 10 different versions of the file with more then 30+ hosts, & they all end up this way...

i am using vista & LW 4.14.0

i have cable & have set my download bandwidth to max & generally download around 1 meg / sec with smaller files, but larger files are definately hit & miss

is there a reason for this? & more importantly is there a solution?

With files showing up with more than 10-20 hosts I would guess that those files are faked either planted by the MPAA or RIAA or their associates....

Try to download said file(s) from search results with lesser host numbers....

Cheers
FOTH
