Are you as Yes fan as well? It sounds as though u need to improve your techniques. See some pointers from this thread click me. Of course when u do a search u are finding fresh resources. If a file stops dwnlding, cancel it from your dwnld pane & reselect it to dwnld it from your search results. LW tends to use a share time process, where it will dwnld a bit from one & a bit from another. This is very evident if u get stuck in a queu & you get shared time with others for dwnlding that same file. If the 1st tune is really a high priority time-wise, do another search for that one to see if you can find new/xtra sources. As far as accuracy of searches goes, it can be a touch annoying. You might consider temporarily putting in keyword filters to filter out these unwanted results. Go to LW's prefs, Filters & click this open & select keyword. Those annoying results not wanted can be added. Don't forget to press Apply. Then after you've completed searching & dwnlding the wanted items, go back & delete the temp filters u added. By the way, a good keyword to permanently be filtered out is .exe That will keep out much of that pc rubbish (some which is virus & spyware) out of your results. Hope these suggestions help.
