"already downloading <somefile>" error when not downloading it dow
 
Hi there,

When clicking the download button for <somefile> I get the message
"you are already downloading <somefile>".
But I am not!

This happens for files that I have begun to download once but had to kill the download. So once killed I cannot restart a new download on the same file.
very frstrtng

This is on a Mac G4/733 with MacOS 9.2.2.

I tried to reinstall (upgrading from 2.3.x to 2.7.9 in the process)
1) use uninstaller from 2.3.x
2) had to remove 3 folders in Preferences
- .limewire
- Shared
- Incomplete
at this point I thought I had removed all traces of past downloads, killed or not.
3) install 2.7.9

However, the problem persists:
downloads killed before the reinstall still produce the "already downloading" error. Now how can this be?

is there a way to force starting the download despite this message?
