Our sympathies
Ive had something similar situation couple of months back. I had to get some hard to get thing which was nearly a gb. I have got it from four different sources and each time it turned out to be pr0n (that too all different). I have 4gb+ of it now and still dont have what I actually wanted

My sympathies, Hunter...:no:
If i'm allowed to say, (in very very terse language) this can only be defined as KLPD....:no:
Had happened to me a few days back when i was downloading Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo...the damn thing went smoothly upto 99.9% and then sat there stuck for 4-5 days.. Until i lost patience and deleted the whole damn torrent and the data..:| it was 1.5 gb downloaded over a period of 2 nights..:no:

bah.you can still resume with some really neat tricks with flashget. I hate Opera's limited resuming capabilities.
(psst.........resume from a remote upload.
)
btw, i see such "tragedies" frequently. its no big deal.
or as Reagan wud say - you ain't seen nothing yet

even if it was rarred/zipped video just extract using 7zip/winrar with ignore error switch and the option to not delete the erroneous file.
play it with kmplayer/media player classic. they would buffer the video stream, and you'll just miss a few seconds film at the end.

Well, yes, it was rar file..Party Monger said:
Damn..never tried this b4...had never checked the ignore error switch..:S If the file was somehow corrupt, win rar wud give an error and most of the time i had to delete the file...:no: Thanks for the info..will try it next time if something like this happens....:: Free Radical ::.. said:
But i usually download movies to store them for later repeated viewing and also to burn them into dvds so tht i can also watch them on dvd player..so if the file has error, it'll most probably not play on a dvd player(or will it? :S)..also, it really pi$$es me off if some part of a perfectly good movie is missing or corrupted due to file error...thts why i downloaded the whole movie again from another torrent..

Anatomy of Rapidshare never allows pause and resume. Be it Opera or Firefox. I dont know if thats possible with a Valid Account.
Also Download managers are not allowed with free rapidshare files.
@dipen.
hey man, thanks a lawt for the gesture but i downloaded it from the start again already. :-|
