Personally , I was disgusted with Bearshare when I used it.

My problem was worse.

10 seconds after I started it , it would crash. I never found a solution for it. Finally, I dumped it.

I dont know what advice to give you.

But, I realised that the results in Bearshare and limewire are nearly 98
% same so you can download the same via Limewire.

If you don't find the same result in LW ,Pm me and I may be able to help you with that.

hey try using Limewire its excellent regarding the problem--the thread from where the file is getting downloaded is uncomplete or partial so it will not get downloaded so better use limewire or morpheus

@ the strategist
bearshare is a P2P software, DAP can't be used for it.
@ all others
thanks but i can't switch to limewire coz i am having a 128kbps net & in bearshare i get speed of >128kbps always & in limewire 12-14KBps.
don't hav $$ to buy pro yaar.

i got my solution, i just go to the temp folder & there the file was complete so i just delete it from the list & copy the 700mb file.
thanks u all
