lose all incomplet dl when i quit
 
when i quit out of limewire all my incomplete downloads disspear. there still in the incomplet downloads folder, how do i get them back in the downloads list.

incomplete downloads
 
hiya - just leave the incomplete files where they are and search again when you next use LW - if the search finds the same file (from the same or a different host) and you hit download - you'll find LW will take up the download from where it left off as incomplete

Cheers, bad_vlad

that sounds good, but what can i do if i have about 900 items in my dl list

ummmm - unless you have huge amounts of free space I'd be deleting some of those 900 incomplete files - the general rule I work with is if the file is pretty common I just delete an incomplete version and start from scratch next time around - if on the other hand its a difficult to find file I'll leave it and just hope that I download it bit by bit so that eventually its complete

or - do you mean you have 900 files in the list and LW starts looking for all of them as soon as you log on? - if thats what you mean I'm guessing you get a lot of requerying that only very rarely results in a connection - you'd almost certainly get better results by killing the (inactive/disconnected) download, searching again and being quick with the mouse click when you see the file you want come up in the search window
