Which version of LW are you using?

Does this happen with all file types (music, movies etc)?

Does it only happen with torrents?

Does this happen with all downloads or just one or two?

Have you been able to use LW without a problem before? Has this started happening since an update/ upgrade?

3_ no not with torrents
4_ well with few files, yes maybe 1 or 2
5_ yes this problem happened to me before but i thought
its because i was using the free version,,

Are you checking files with Bitzi before download? If other users have rated the file then you'll see whether anybody else has had problems with it.
How to use Bitzi Web Lookup .. & How to use Magnet Links & Direct Connect/Browse/Chat

It shouldn't really make a difference if you're using Pro or basic. When a download gets stuck, right click on the file in the results window > search more > get more results. Or start a new search for the file, sometimes that can kickstart a download.
