i looked at some of the problems and there were vias

hi brock,
thanks for the suggestion on doing an undo instead
of an unroute. sounds like a good one.

I don't think you should do an Un-route after a failed
autorouter pass. An Undo will remove all the junk and
take you back to where you started.

hello,
i had a 4 layer board with 2 planes and 2 layers of traces.
it routed 100% but then was taking forever trying to resolve
contentions. i stopped it and added two more layers for
traces.
its now going to 99% routing completion and stopping, with
2 connections remaining. this took under 3

Well, if you stop an autoroute session, and then re-started it without
unrouting what it did, and you have lock all pre-routes checked, then it's
possible that would happen. When you do a Tools | Unroute | All, you get a
prompt for including locked primitives. If you say Yes, it SHOULD get rid
