Hi, could anybody please help with stalling, most of the time there are upto 10 users, but it just counts down to 1 user and then just stalls?

Are these torrent or gnutella network files? Torrent files may stall because nobody else online has more % of the file than you.
I've had two torrent files sitting at between 30-60% downloaded since start of year, despite 40+ others online with same file, they all have same % as me & are also waiting for someone to come online with the entire 100% of the file. Unfortunately with public torrents there are too many hit & runs, they get what they want then don't share back.

Gnutella files may stall because LW can't find more users with same file with available upload slots. Another reason they may stall is because they are fake files or similar such as the user having upload slots set to zero.
Best answer for gnutella network files is to search the file again as you did originally then 5-10 mins later right-click the search result tab & choose Find More Results.

Another alternative if above does not work is find an alternative file in search results that is the same topic file but shared by someone else.

Hi, thanks for the help and reply, i am new to this so dont no how to follow your advice? sorry for being abit slow with this.

I'm guessing these are gnutella network files then, not a torrent file you downloaded initially off a web site & opened with LW.

To re-search the file(s) simply type in the search box as you did previously. After 5-10 minutes, right-click the search tab & choose Find More Results. Sample image below:


Hopefully this will result in more hosts with same file, and some will be able to be downloaded from. If this does not work, then choose another option from your search results instead.

thanks mate i will give it a try
