Based on Sanders description I agree that a bad sever connection might be the problem. Your connection isn't the only thing that matters, also the distance and number of hops to your provider.

The rules say I can't post the NZB itself but I am happy to provide a link to anyone via DM if it's allowed to see if it is reproducable. It seems to happen with any nzb that looks like it has cancelled articles.

Hi all, I've been getting really slow speeds from giganews and decided to try the internal test download. (Wrench icon > Test Download), All three of the test downloads fail on giganews as not complete. These test downloads are ok using usenetexpress or newsdemon. While trying to troubleshoot this I...
