Completed torrent download restarting

Hello,

I was surprise to find today one of my completed torrent download was restarted when it was 100% completed( 9.6 GB) and started at first 94% then now @ 8.5%.

version of BitComet is 1.32( was going to update it today) Internet connection is ADSL 512 Kbps

Ports are forwarded. firewall all configured.

OS: XP SP2 32 bit

Please tell whats wrong, I have always downloaded torrents about this size and never encountered such issue.

Can’t help you too much about that, but I know my torrent client is pretty cool and works fluently…it’s actually a web browser that’s called torch, do you know it?

sounds to me like some data became corrupted or the downloaded files changed or were moved. Stop the task and do a manual rehash, this will confirm your level of completion and you can proceed from there. If this problem persists you could have a problem with your harddrive or file system.

It’s an optional setting, but when the download is finished, BitComet will run a final hash-check of the whole torrent. Anything that slipped past anyway, gets weeded out here. It’s pretty unusual for much to slip past, but damage to the stored download will do the same thing and will look like this.

Thank you for the reply guys, by the time you replied i had already downloaded the file again but from another torrent link. Maybe some corrupted data were injected in the first one because everything is fine with my windows and file system.

Thanks. :wink:
