You can't see how many people are downloading a file. What you see in the # column is how many people are sharing an identical version of that file

If the files have heaps of sources but sit connecting for ages & get stuck needing sources forever, chances are they're fake files. Check the threads below for info & tips ( especially Bitzi!!).
