I started the downloading of the game yesterday and then left when i came back about six hours later it was at 83%. When i checked it was still downloading. I left it on all night and while i was at school but it still is at 83%. It is still downloading but it has only increased like 20 Mb. What do I do. It keeps saying disconnected from server but it resumes on its own.

    Do you think there is a problem with your internet? the best way to do it is to download it via the torrent that way if your internet is the problem it will resume automatically the same cannot be said for the downloader via FF or IE.

    That not good. In the past, before I discovered torrent. When ever I get disconnected while downloading from firefox and it resumes on it own, when the file is finish downloading it always result being corrupted. That why I stick with torrent, because torrent will re-check the file and most torrent client have an option to block users who are sending corrupt data.

    Whenever I used U-torrent and I where to remove a file from the package I downloaded it would not let me seed it (I wasnt trying to just didnt remove it form log yet) and it would say "Error missing files". From my understanding of what happend that means Utorrent not only blocks ppl from seeding corrupt missing torrents but it also prevents you from downloading them. It is safe to download the torrent from this site, but I advise you to not use another site for this. Windows Operating systems are a monopoly and that is why viruses exists. (no other operating system gets viruses other than windows) so chances are when you download the torrent from another site other than PWI you will get a virus when you install the program.

    I am warning you of this b/c I recently got a virus while using vista it was called "vista antivirus 2008" dont be fooled by its name it removes all your system restore points up untill that date so you cant roll back your computer to get rid of it. It also messes with your hard disk so downgrading your computer with another operating system wont work either. I've had to install Linux to get rid of it (it is so new most antivirus programs wont detect or remove it and when you do remove it it will mess with your system files and corrupt your computer from working) I am now 2 weeks without being able to use my own laptop. I will be able to use it soon once I get a dvd to burn vista to but I am just writing this as a warning.

    Unless you have an antivirus program that can scan the zip file before you install for viruses do not download this torrent from any other site. No matter if you cant find enough seeds to finish it the day you want it done. Just keep trying more and more people are bound to log on to seed it for you so be patient. Its better than having your computer messed up.
