too many Awaiting soures?
 

Many of my downloads say awaiting sources, i have triend to restart them, but not much luck. Why causes this, and can i do anything to prevent it from happening so much

Sounds like you've resumed too many files!!! Not good to use that function (Resume/Find Sources button) on many files. The best way to continue downlds is to search for the topic again so you can find fresh or new sources. This IS the most efficient way of continuing downlds. What you were doing will result in your files queueing for much, much longer & possibly affecting LW's connection quality, & making LW run slow.

(a) 'Waiting #s for Sources' ends up as (b) 'Awaiting Sources', which are evidence of using the resume function. They would normally end up as 'Need More Sources' if they couldn't find a source to downld from.

Some hints: A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities.
