These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Resuming downloads Hi, I'm new to Gnotella. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to resume incomplete downloads? I have a large file that is nearly complete (my ISP unplugged me after 4 hours!) and rather than download it all over again, I'd like to just complete it. I should say that it is no longer in my download queue so I can't resume that way. There must be a way!! Thanx.  |

 I too have a problem with large downloads. My ISP allows me on the net for nothing, ie no telephone charges. Unfortunately It cuts me off after two hours, therfore buggering up any large file downloads. I know that there is file share clients which start a download from where it left off, but Gnutella has a problem with this and starts the file at the beginning. New to Gnotella and hope that it will resume downloads from where I left off. Thanks. |

 BearShare will let you resume donwloads. Just start downloading the same file again and it will resume where you left off. If someone renamed the file on you but the name is close and the size is the same so you know that it is the same file just rename your file to the new name and then resume with work again. Some lame Gnutella clients can't resume. Also Limewire has a bug that won't let people resume from them no matter what client you are using. In BearShare you can see what clients people are using, so then you can resume the file from a non-Limewire client. Hope this helps, it has always worked for me.

 You are wrong about LimeWire. Indeed it was Bearshare who had a bug that let noone resume files from LimeWire. This was because older Bearshare versions did not comply to the strict HTTP naming conventions and therefore were not able to connect to LimeWire users properly. |

| Resume with Phex Hi... Other clients like Phex are also able to resume downloads. The special thing with Phex is that automaticly search for new download candidates with the same file. The filename has not to be equal you can specify any search term yourself. Once a file matches it will add the download candidate. This way you can let your client run for days without maintenance and it will try to find hosts and starts downloads until you have the comlete file. Gregor http://phex.sourceforge.net |

| There actually is a way to resume a large file (or a file of any size) without having to dl other programs. Though it's a bit *tedious* to do so. First, re-find the file and start downloading it. Once it has started, immediately abort it and close Gnotella. Go to your Temp folder in the Gnotella folder and find the file which is the newly-started one (check it's file size to know the difference between the new and the old). Copy the name of the new file, delete the new file, then paste the name over the old file. Reopen Gnotella and hope that the file from the host is still available. If it is, it'll try to Request it and resume it from where you last left off. It sounds like a lot of work, and it probably is. But at times it can be a great time saver in the long run. |
