=awaiting sources

=need more sources

what do they differ?


-waiting in line

-waiting for busy host
what do they mean?

why do "awaiting sources" clear when you refresh?

for the first 2 and maybe for all go to this linkhttp://www.gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27104&highlight=awaitin g+sources

waiting in line means that you are waiting for other users which tried getting the download before, to finish the download from the host as he doesn't allow more than a certain number of people

waiting for busy hosts means that it's waiting for a position.

and when you refresh it clears those because, it tries to connect again

Need more sources is what happens after a dwnld attempt fails to connect to enough sources to dwnld from. The next one happens when you attempt to force resume a dwnld, Awaiting sources indicates that Limewire has 'given up' on the download, meaning that it won't try looking for new files anymore. It'll try every 5-6 mins & eventually give up. Hope that's a little clearer.
