* What were the KB error numbers associated with the failed downloads?

* Have you a system restore point CREATED prior to these current "problems"?

* Did your system come with a preinstalled Anti Virus? If so what was it & how was it uninstalled?

* Have you checked in Event Viewer?
Type eventvwr in search.
Go to the windows log > application > in the left hand column note anything red that relates to the problem.
Please note the event ID, and the source codes and Google the results.

*Run a Malware scan.
Two programs that we recommend are SuperAntiSpyware or Malwarebytes.
Both have free versions.
Have a look at both & see which you would prefer.
Download & install the free version.
Update it immediately & do a full system scan.
Let us know the results at the end.

My downloads are movies of 700MB each. I don't deal with system restores. My system didn't come with a pre-installed antivirus. I have checked the event viewer and found nothing regarding this problem and as for the programs you mentioned, I ran super anti spyware and found only 19 tracing cookies.. I don't think my pc is a subject to virus or malware attacks..

Usually Rapidshare and Megashare have downloading tools that you can install that can resume failed downloads 700mb downloads are considerable and would have to be quite frustrating to re-download them. I would also suggest installing a good security suite that can monitor sites like Norton Intenet Security Suite.

I think I have figured it..I tried to download something but before downloading, I disabled the entire eset smart security system and the download was complete !!
Problem is, I don't know how to adjust eset to not interrupt my downloads..Anyone knows how ?

EDIT: scratch that..I disabled the antivirus pack and still can't download

Edit 2: OK I got to the bottom of it (I think). The main sites I download are from rapidshare and megaupload. Apparently every download from these sites get interrupted but from other less known servers like freakshare the downloads are not interrupted..
Anyone knows why or how to fix this ?

Hi. Partouch started this thread almost 3 years ago. I'm having similar trouble right now.

Downloading files from some sites has become impossible; downloads are constantly getting interrupted, and if the site does not allow for retakes, when I restart manually it starts from the beginning. If the file is rather large, this means it will never finish downloading. Eventually JDownloader shows growing download speed for a particular file, but the byte download count freezes, and a few seconds later, the row is grayed out, and the download stops. When I restart the download, the same thing happens again a few minutes later.

The behaviour I've described happens both downloading with jdownloader or directly with internet explorer, and it has been going on for quite a few months now. No changes have ocurred in my system (none that I know of at least) that might justify this behaviour.

My system's features:

- Western Digital HD, 30 GB free space
- RAM, 4 GB
- Windows 7
- Avira Free Edition Antivirus
- Windows Firewall

Right now, I'm watching the Windows Task Manager window; CPU usage is about 16-18%; RAM usage is 2,50-2,70 GB.

I've tried disabling Windows Firewall and Avira's PC protection (which I do NOT like to do), but the problem remained the same. I don't even know how to disable Avira's Internet protection (which I'd DEFINITELY rather NOT do anyway).

Any ideas how to work this out? Thanks in advance!

One more thing: I've tried the SAME downloads with a notebook running Windows 8, and using the SAME phone connection, and they WORKED. So it seems obvious that the problem lies with my PC, and not my phone line or my ISP.

Thanks again.

Hello. A couple of days ago, some Windows updates were installed automatically in my PC. It seems that the problems I mentioned before STOPPED after this. So I guess they must have been caused by some condition that was fixed by the updates.
Thank you.
