At 99% you won't miss anything. You can shut down LW and then restart and see if it will finish. If it goes to the incomplete folder just click on resume.

Click on explore while in the LW Library and see if the file is on your HDD. If it is Try to scan it with your AV and then see if you can Launch it.

Did you try to Preview the File?? You just say it's Large and I'm assuming it's a video file?? If it is , you should ALWAYS use Bitzi. See Instructions below. If it's a Program, or Game With extensions .exe or .rar be very wary.


This is how it works. After you have completed your search, Right click on the file that you're interested in. Now go to Advanced > Lookup File With Bitzi. Left click on that and a new browser window will open which is Bitzi. Now you will see how other members have rated this file. If you see something like "Bitprint not found" then Leave it alone. Its probably a Fake or Corrupt File. If it has been Rated then you can read what or how the members feel about the file.

HDD = Hard Disk Drive AV = Anti Virus

well it is a fairly well known fact that what you are experiencing is most likely a bogus file hosted by the MPAA's paid henchmen to waste your time and effort...
