Greetings shalapy, and welcome to the Gnutella forums!

I don't know why your dls have stalled. LW is not very good for torrents as it does not comply with all of the protocols required by many torrent sites. You would much better off using a true torrent client, such as Vuze or uTorrent (both are free).

Are these torrent files as the topic suggests?

It's very easy to check whether it's a Lime/Frostwire problem or a setup/isp problem.

Just install uTorrent and see if you also have problems there. Torrent - a (very) tiny BitTorrent client
