There's various things you can 'try' to help with the dwnld. (a) Only dwnld one item at a time, (b) Do another search for the movie & see if you can latch onto more sources & be dwnlding from more than one source. (Keep in mind that not all people have fast internet connections some as slow as dialup modem & some as good as T1.) You will have connected to the 1st available source of the movie, be that a modem source or something better, or you may be dwnlding from a few modems at the same time. (c) Kill the Dwnld in the LW dwnld window & reselect it to dwnld. You may be luckier next time to latch onto a faster source (if you do this it would be worthwhile to re-search for the movie so you can find fresh sources - sources in search results can go stale if they've been sitting there for a while). By killing the dwnld, it will not delete the incomplete file you've been dwnlding. So when you redwnld it, it will resume where it left off. (the only small chance this doesn't happen, kill the dwnld & select another from the search results.)
(d) see this link to help configure LW for better results: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...5&pagenumber=1
I hope these suggestions help.
