I try to download a movie, i wait 2 hours and when it hits 99% it stops downloading and i'm queud. so i say, lets try again, but same story AGAIN.
ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS????? maybe i should mention that the movie is cky3.mpg

This happens when Xolox increases its use of your system resources while it is attempting to assemble, check, move, and reconfigure the file; and establish a new connection to the host file (to verify accuracy). There are a few things you can do to help restart download that reaches 99% and freezes, and prevent this from happening. The most important is to make sure all the boxes under the “Downloads” tab are unchecked (they are redundant and unnecessary). The second most important is to make certain you have defragged recently (an organized HD frees up resources). Also don’t over tax your processor (like any P2P Xolox can be a resource hog), try to pause any program that is in extreme competition with Xolox during the file completion phase (like another share program, some systems are not setup to handle simultaneously running share applications).

After you have made some of these changes it would probably be a good idea to restart your system. Xolox should then be ready to behave.

also when they get close to 97% I pause all other downloads, and stop surfing the web, in fact i try not to even touch the PC til it reaches 100%, sometimes exiting xolox and restarting it, if it's been running a while, will stir up new sources.
-your milage may vary

It depends on what client you are downloading from because a lot of them close the socket before the serial transfer is complete. This will happen more from a modem speed server. Please post what client you are downloading from so we can tell that author he needs to wait for the transfer to complete.
Watch the speed you get and tell us that too, anything like 2K a second is a modem for sure.

I guess you didn’t realize this part of the Gnutella forum is in the Xolox section. Don’t worry about it, happens all the time, mostly from LimeWire users though. With a sub-header like Support Center, I can see how it could be easy to think that this part of the forum was for general Gnutella support. Of course, as anyone that has used Xolox knows, Xolox does not list the “clients you are downloading from”.
