I guess you have a movie that sits there connecting forever??? Please explain the problem... don't make us guess.

If you've got a file that sits connecting forever it's either

(a) A bug

(b) A kind of fake file which has emerged recently. Loads of sources (up to 100). In this case, search again. Vary your search terms. Use All Types search rather than video. Stick with files of 10 sources or less. Look up a file before download with Bitzi
How to use Bitzi

hey thanx for replyin
lets just say 100 * 70 means i got 70 results with different names and each got more or less 100 sources to download from but when i try to download nothing happens...
i even tried to download all of them(offcourse one by one) but nothing happened means the download never started..lw just tries to connect and then sits back with need more sources....
as u said i tried all types but same problem arises...
waiting...

no

Ignore the 100 results ... they're probably spam results which are advertisting dud files. Look for those results less than 20 or less than 10.

Why would they advertise dud files? Do they get some kind of joy out of watching people download the dud files? Heck if you ask me someone needs a little less time on their hands!

Size
 

The size of the file is a good indicator on if the file is a dud or genuine. You know a movie or video is large, so if the file is in kb, you probably can assume it is a false file or dud. :)

I dowloaded you-know-what and it's fine you just have to work out the size of the file after a while you get used to how many mgb is a film how many mgb is a trailer how many mbg is a music video ect.

At the moment though the fake files are the proper size, but usually have 100 plus hosts, so its getting harder to tell whats geniune and whats fake...
Bitzi is a good way of checking this....;)

Thank you so much for the BITZY info "birdy"...i'm new to limewire and sooooo wish i would of known about bitzy before waisting hours to download what was meant to be a kids film and turned out to be hard porn...:mad:
How sick must they be to rename porn as a kids film???

I don't want to start a big "oh my god you didn't" debate but when i download adult films i re-name them so my 14 year old doesn't watch them the titles are fairly disturbing so i re-name them has "porn 1" or "porn 2" not 12 year old pedo qwerty anal sex dog****ing whatever so if anyone looks at my documents i am not going to get branded a kiddy fidler i preview them first if it is child porn i report it and junk the file.Can you use BITZY for films?
