RE: [H] Bit Torrent Prob
I have not had any problems with big files. I just downloaded a 3.08GB Linux distro the other day with no problems. As a matter of fact, I can not ever remember this happening.

BitLord here too and no problems. I do seed though to at least 200%.

Re: [H] Bit Torrent Prob
Brian, I have experienced the same thing on several occasions, many times even a far lower percentage. It's really frustrating, especially after a whole and night of downloading and the loss of seed credit. I think those 100%ers are just dropping after they get the file and do not seed. This is a bad thing for others. I try to triple my download, if possible. Hope you find an answer as I would like to know if there is another reason. Jeff From: "Brian Weeden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [H] Bit Torrent Prob Several times when downloading something from BT I will get to about 99% compeltion and then it will stop, and those last 2-3 pieces take forever (and sometimes never arrive). In every case, the swarm has lots of good seeds (usually 50+) and people with the full file, but I don't seem to be dowloading from them. Any idea how to force it to finish the file? I am using the latest version of Azureus. -- Brian
