Problem: verifying file contents
 

Hi, I have a small problem. while downloading larger AVI format videos, limewire locks up after reaching 99% during the "Verifying File Contents" phase. It really is quite annoying especially after waiting the whopping 9 hours to download the video I've been wanting. Any suggestions?

I run Windows 98, and a Pentium 3 machine if any of this matters. Also running version 4.8.1 Please note that this problem does not occur on smaller files, usually on ones above 100MB only.

Thanks

Hmm it could be related to ram. Have you tried to play these video files? 1% probably only represents the final credits anyway. It might be related to how busy your LW is & it might be related to corrupt findings where it attempts to redownld the missing or incorrect bit or byte but your LW is too busy & it can't handle it. Just guessing.
