It's the way things work. Bittorent downloads the file in random pieces. The reason is so that if the seeder goes away, the leechers have the entire file and can share it anyway. What you are seeing is that 96.8% of the file was downloaded by leechers before the seeder went away and now all of you are missing the same 3.2%. Until the seeder comes back or a new leecher comes on, nothing will go anywhere. I'm in that state now. I started a download of 2.6gig around midnight and at 8am it was 99% done. It's now stuck at 99.8%. I'm screwed because although it was multiple files, they were in one big rar file and without the whole thing, none are readable. Geoff. -- Geoffrey S.
