what means "connection rejected" ?

hi everybody !

ok it may be a stupid question but i'm new with gnotella and i didn't succeed to find an answer in the different faq and help pages...

what does "connection rejected" in the download windows (when trying to download a file) means ?

thank all of you for help.

killing joke.

It usually means the host is busy and can't handle any more connections, so it starts dropping them.

thanks a lot for your answer.

That is one reason. But when that happens usually Host is busy, waiting... is displayed. Connection rejected means -apart from that- that the server is no longer online and therefore you won't be able to download from it at that moment.
