If you post a question asking for help, and solve the problem yourself - don't edit the post... explain what you did to solve your problem.
I know everything...others don't.

ROFL... not ONE person replied to this thread to help me out so I figured why bother going into a big long explanation for nothing?
Anyway, I didn't figure it out. Still don't know how to do it. But did figure out the files I was downloading were too old, that's why so many pieces were missing, okay?
Sheesh... get mad if I remove a post (Since I'm not allowed to delete it) yet won't help me in the first place? Seems a tad hypocritical to me, especially since you claim to know everything....

Your problem is... that you are using QuickParse to repair rar files.
Try Quickpar, instead.

If your still having problems; read this guide.

It IS Quick Par, sorry, I misspoke.
And they weren't rar files - which was the other problem

So... Is everything working, now. What type of files were they, btw?

Actually, I found out the files were all too old so I had a TON of missing pieces so I threw everything out and am starting again, setting newsleecher to retrieve files no older than 100 days since its retention time is 102 days.
I don't remember what kind of files they were but to be missing 500 pieces here and 400 there, I just chucked everything
Once these get down, I'll try again

Ah... you were using your ISPs news server. So, you went with a paid server
for the retention times. (you're catching on, lad)
