 Download just disappeared - help!!!!
 Help!! For the past THREE WEEKS I've been downloading a huge set of video files (58 gb total). I had to clear out a huge amount of disk space on my computer to accomodate this. After long, long wait today I was finally at 99%. I know the files were good, because I was already able to watch most of them, even long before downloading was complete. Anyway, now when I when I went back to check on it, it disappeared!!! Limewire says the download was 100% complete, but under status it says "disk problem". The files are not in my incomplete folder or in my saved folder, recycle bin, or anywhere. In fact, my hard drive now has 58 gb free!! It looks like the Limewire program just up and erased the whole thing on it's own!! Why did it do that?? The only thing I can think of, is it had some problem moving it from my incomplete folder to my saved folder. But I still had a fair amount of space left (4 gb) , and if it had any trouble, why didn't it just leave it in the incomplete folder? Why did it just erase the whole thing without my permission?? Is there any hope of retrieving it? And how can I prevent this in the future? There's no way I want to go through this again.  |
