Default Download Problems

When I Click To Download It Says Connecting For About 3 Min And The Says Need More Sorces Even When There Are About 80. And This Is For Every Download. Everything Else Seems To Work Fine. What Can I Do

The network has been flooded with fake files, what you need to do is try downloading from a smaller number of hosts 10 and under...Also vary your search terms as this can help as well....

I have the same problem. I am actually looking for the movie. I search for it and get loads of links but everytime i go to download it says 'connecting' then goes to 'need more sources'. I then tryed making my search criteria more specific and went to the download with less hosts. I was met with the same 'need more sources' message. Is there anything i can do to get the file i want.

You can use Bitzi to see if it's a legit file or not...
How to use Bitzi

Also could you edit the file name as it against the forum rules to name copyrighted files....Cheers
