Red Download Files

[BDogg4821]

Just a quick little question:

Why do some files immediately turn red in the transer screen and do not download. These do not even enter into a queue, even though on the search screen it says that the file is available. This is annoying because a lot of files do this.

Thank You

it means those files are not available at the moment.
either because the person who hosted them is offline now or they are busy and not accepting more in que or whatever.
basicly you can't get it.

If this is the case, why does it show that the file is accessible on the right hand side of the search menu?

Thanks

[Rickio]

well are you getting any of those files?
either that file is offline as I mentioned or the host of the file is busy. when the file is once again available it will continue to download or put you on que again.

it could also be because the person your queing from has been taking files out of his shared folder and never did a refresh after.

or maybe theyre behind a firewall and you cant connect to them.
