Multiple downloads reset to 0 KB at the same time
 

I've been having this problem recently. I have the latest version of LimeWire. When I'm downloading multiple files, the files start off downloading fine, but after a minute or so, they gradually go down to 0 KB simaltaneously and stay there. I usually hit "Pause" and "Resume" and the files either start downloading again or is waiting in line. This process usually repeats itself the whole time the files are downloading. A few things to note. This problem happens primarily with video files. Also, I recently got BellSouth DSL, and the problems began shortly after getting this service. Lastly, I tried the Fixes For LimeWire instructions to no avail. One interesting thing. I configured LimeWire to do a Manual Port Forward and tried using a few working V4/5 Socks Proxys. This did prevent the multiple downloads from going to 0 KB, but my download speed was greatly reduced. Any suggestions on what may be the cause of my problem and what I can do to fix it? Thanks.

Many of the movie downlds come from Shareaza clients. Since they work on multiple networks they often only offer miserly uplds for Gnutella. See the following link & follow all the off-shoot links to find hints & extra skills to help solve your problem: To continue files downlding (click on link)

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.

If you did port forwarding for your modem/router, I hope you initially set up a static ip, otherwise that's one reason you might be having problems.
