downloading problems
 

alot of my files wont download whats the problem?

What happens when you try to download?????????
Do files sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever?

If that's the case, you're probably seeing fake files.

If you're searching for music files, use the All Types search & search for artist or album rather than song title. Go for a file with 10 sources or less...stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources.
If you're searching for video files, always chech the file with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake.

Check out the threads below for more info & tips, including how to use Bitzi;)

wayfastwhitey,

It's possible that the hosts you're trying to download from have either gone offline or have no upload slots free for you at the time. On the search results page, right click on the result > search more > get more results. See whether that gives the download a kick.

BlackHalo,

When you click to download the torrent, choose to save it to disk. Then right click on the torrent icon > open with > choose BitLord from the list & tick the box to always use this program for torrents. Hopefully that will make BitLord your default torrent handler;)
