Question Searching for already transferring (selected to transfer) files

I have a question about the searching that XoloX does for searching for those files which you have already selected to download. It doesn't appear that the search is as good as if you did a search for the file in the first place. Here is an example of what I have noticed:

I do a search for "filea.txt"
XoloX finds that file. I select it to download, it begins to download. While downloading, XoloX finds 3 more instances/partials of the same file (+3 parts). The original download for some reason got disconnected so XoloX reports it as searching and 1 busy. It never seems to say 3 busy. It will eventually say 1 Active, 0 busy, but why not 1 Active, 3 busy. In other words, how come the search didn't realize that there were 3 other locations to download from? This is very frustrating because sometimes the "Searching" can occur for a very long time without finding the other locations. If I hit cancel on the file, went back to the Search Results tab and clicked on the file to download, it will immediately download and say soemthing like 2 Active, 2 busy.

Is this a bug?
