Default Downloading **, problems?

In the past I've had no problems d/l ing episodes of [edit]but for the past few weeks I have been unable to d/l any at all. Lots appear on searches and when I click on download Limewire gives the usual "connecting" message but then, without fail gives "more sources needed". This happens on every source even though Limewire might say there are 50 feed sources.

I have no problem d/l ing any other files, only [edit] so it's not a firewall or ISP block?

Has anyone else had this issue? If so have you resolved it and how? Otherwise does anyone have any suggestions please?

Thanks.

Pete

Try right clicking on the file you are about to download and select advance and then look file up with Bitzi and see if it's rated there, if it's not it's more than likely a fake, if it is rated you will know it's genuine...

Have you googled the (name of file's site) to see when it lasted aired, sometimes they have a break between episodes...

Hi, thanks for replying.

None of the files I'm trying to d/l are known by Bitpedia, but then none of the one I've d/l'd in the past were either . I've tried re-downloading episodes I've d/l'd before and no joy.

The problem seems specific to [edit], I've test d/l'd all sorts of other files and all are OK, it's just [edit]

Pete

please stop naming the file...

Default Same problem

Curious to know the solution on this query also, as having the exact same issue?? One question though when you try to d/l said file are you able to browse the host? because I am unable to, whereas other files that can be downloaded, allow me to browse the host

Hi, I hope I'm at the right place, this just started happening, and for some reason only with 1 movie I've been searching for. For some reason, when I look for certain movie (wasn't sure I could name it seeing the previous posts having edited out names), I end up with over 7000 results, and none ever download. Seems like I'm doing something wrong. One other thing, I stopped using LW for a while, and when I came back, it seems like I get ALOT of results involving advertizements or weird clips (for example almost every search I do returns something called CAT VS BABY), and it just seems alot different.

Shaw, try filtering out the following file extensions for a much better search result. .wma, .exe, .rar, .html, .com, .zip, .mov. Go to Tools > Options > Filters > Keywords. After you put the extensions in to block, hit apply and then OK. This will clean up a ton of crap. Another smart thing to do is look up files with Bitzi before downloading. I have found the best and safest movie files are avi. Hope this helps.
