But if it cannot match what you have exactly it will go back to a point where the match will fit, that could be anywhere from your PC switch off point to 1%. And if it cannot make a match at all it will start the download all over again.

If what you say is correct then LW has a serious bug!!!
LW should try to match only the all imcomplete file and if cannot make a match ask what to do: wait another source or match the most he can.
I only try to D/L files with 4* and 2+ sources and allways see if the file exists in bitzi database. With that, unless exists any D/L error, LW shoud resume properly from a compatible file.

then: is a LW bug or a LW bug?
