Default Downloads Stopping at 100%

I haven't been able to find the problem but they always seem to stop at 100%..

I'd appreciate any help!

Next time you open the program does the file end up 100% downloaded? Which version of LW are you using?

In such scenarios, I cancel from download window only if using LW 4 & re-select from search results. Else re-search the topic. This does not always work. I had same scenario yesterday with an audio file. I found the file is now in my download folder.

For LW 5, do not cancel from download window else this will delete the file!!!

Why this happens I do not know. Sometimes files stall, even during the comparison stage at end of downloading when verifying.

Do you have your downloads set to Auto-clear? If not, then they will remain in download window. This can be changed in option preferences under Downloads.

No, they are not set in Auto-clear but I've tried the "pause" and "resume" trick.. I suppose I will just have to re-download them.


**Edit:


I restarted Limewire and it saved about 3 of the 7 files and verified them. So, I'm somewhat happy as they're larger downloads.

Thanks for the help Lord of the Rings, as said before, it was well appreciated!

hmm .. should not need to re-download them. I generally find they end up 100% downloaded & verified at 'some' point.
