Me again...

1: There is nothing wrong with the client. Absolutely nothing is wrong with the client. I agree with you that it is well written and reliable. As I said, I successfully tested it with a friend... I was actually using it as an alternative to mailing files.

2: The way I counted was having the "Clear failed" unchecked, then from curiosity... scrolled through until my fingers were about to fall off.

3: I checked and all is well with the folders. The downloads never commenced, so there were none there. They started and instantly turned to error, failed, or busy. The busy ones eventually errored or failed.

If there isn't a evident problem than there is no evident solution. I dunno, I guess I'm just doomed.
