Slow downloads depend on the slowest link--once you've lost a good connection slot on a fast host's machine(s), there's not much more you can do than "Repeat Search." If Repeat Search shows lots more hosts for that file, sometimes it's better to just start a new download.

btw--I forgot to say last time that you can just start a new download, and it will resume where it left off (if it truly matches). That's the other way to resume a file. The third way is to quit and restart LimeWire, since incompletes are added to the downloads list on restart.

Cheers--glad it worked. Check out the help menu for more Tips of The Day.
