[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] Ok, I think it's toast. From the help file --> [i][b]Kazaa Lite deletes my dat files[/b] When your computer crashes or shuts down due to power failure, it can happen that some of your partial downloads (.dat files) get corrupted. If the part where all the essential details of the file (name, hash, checksum, size, sources) are stored gets messed up, then Kazaa Lite is not able to resume the file. Once Kazaa Lite encounters such a broken file, it will delete the file. Crashes are often hardware related (wrong/old drivers, incompatibilities between hardware). So make sure all your drivers are up-to-date. Also keep your software up-to-date. A stable Operating System such as Windows 2000 or XP can help a lot to prevent crashes. Otherwise there is no other solution than making backups of big dat files once in a while, so that you don't have to start the download all over again. [/i] Looks like I'll have to start again. Bugger. On the bright side it was a new episode when I started the download last week so there should be more souces to download from by now. Not that I ever seam to get to use more than 2 sources at a time, even when the search lists something like 12 users that have the file. Grr. [/QB][/QUOTE]
