If I try to download something and it gets aborted or it doesn't work, I delete it. If I try to re-download the file then I get the message "error you are already downloading this file to... whatever" so I try to go to that save file and delete it so I can re-download it and it still won't let me, and gives me the same error message.

I try to download a torrent, and when I look at the download in frostwire it says 0% aborted.

Right-click FW & choose Run as Administrator before opening it. Could also do this with Java by finding the Java.exe file.

Also, check space available on your hard disk partition where you are downloading to. Might be short on space. Maybe worth defragmenting your drives also.

My impression is it might be a system permissions error that's not allowing FW to write to the disk.

Possibly some security software is causing issue too. FW might need to be put on their safe list.

thanks, you we're right i didnt have enough space in my hard drive! it works perfectly now thanks to you
