Have you even tried downloading any other file in Limewire to check whether it's the file that's corrupt?

Oh and Phex is better than Limewire

the file isnt corrupt because Ive previewed it and its played right up to the end of what it had downloaded so far..and Ive downloaded plenty of other files on Limewire..this is the first time Ive had this problem

So you previewed part of the file, so it isn't corrupt?
You downloaded succesfully other files so it isn't corrupt?
You won't try another client that connects to exactly the same network, because it isn't corrupt?

Good luck with that

If I remember correctly then Limewire should be able to display how much corrupt data is being sent by rightclicking the file and selecting something which I can't remember.

P.S. Ever thought about that just maybe the file is ok but the host(s) sharing are sending bad data?

I've had the same problem on a few downloads,I went into wmp opened the sun java bit on the tools options on the right and it eventually said the file was corrupt.Not being sure if corrupt mean't there is a bit of info missing or that a virus is detected i just deleted file and gave up

The same thing happens to me with all large files. They start going backwards. They can't all be corrupt (seen this with about 10 .mpg files). Please help!
