Unhappy Limewire doesn't see my incomplete file..

I was downloading a file which is 471.9 MB, and it usually went quite slowly (this program is quite hard to get hold of I believe).

Anyway, the file regularly slowed to 0 kb/s and then said "more sources needed", so I would just repeat the search, and would start downloading it again (off the same person I think)

I would keep doing this, but I got vastly impatient, and realised that there was another file which was the exact same size, but had a different filename. So I went into the "Incomplete" folder, backed up the file names, and CHANGED the incomplete file which I had downloaded (about 360 MB worth) to the name of the other file, hoping that when I ran Limewire, it would latch on and download the same file from another person under a different name.

Now it doesnt see the file at all. Oops?

Any suggestions? If anyone doesnt get it, I understand, and I'll explain more. Cheers.

Jonny
