There can be a number of reasons for this,
the speed of your connection
the speed of the connection you are dl from
your ISP, and so on, it can take a few hours to dl movie files
Have you disabled your firewall for LW ?

It must be who your downloading off and the amount of hosts. It happens, be patient its nearly done.
