u reckon i should just keep trying and it should be done by tommorow, i just thought it was strange to stop at 99%

ohhhhhh thats terrible, how often does this happen on Bit Torrent, and do u reckon i should still try and hope, u see i wonted Blitzkrieg and was using mIRC which is like the best downloading program eva but mostly its just queues queues queues and more queues. :(

I get most games from IRC, but i recently heard about BitTorrent and thought it was cool until this happened, could u explain what you mean by seeds :blink:

thanks chris

just in case you got the torrent from SuprNova (http://10mbit.com/suprnova/) you could try and go there and ask for it to be reseeded.

a seeder is someone who has the full file, thus not downloading just uploading!
