.torrent never finishing!

Hey, downloading some rarred dvd for a few days now and
can't seem to get past being 98.8% finished! I've tried
re-opening the same torrent in bittornado with no effect.

According to the site where I've downloaded the torrent,
there should be over 200 seeds, but I have no seeds showing
up in the download window of my bittornado client, only
leachers.

Is this a dupe, or does somebody know a way to change the
settings in bittornado to access the extra few %?

cheers

ah ok, just googled and read this:

Barking Spider bij 2006-08-03 14:03 GMT:

This is the third time someone has posted the entire season
2 as one big file and stopped seeding at around 95%. Is the
network fucking with us or are the seeders just idiots?

Barking Spider bij 2006-08-05 06:18 GMT:

Stay away from these full season rar's. The seeder will stop
somewhere around 98% and will never finish it. I think it's
a ploy of the TV networks to frustrate downloaders.

fucking basterds

I tried fixing the rar with 'advanced rar repair' with no
luck.

razor, if it's stuck at 99.9%
you;re probably downlaoding a movie

and it's a fake torrent

companies do this to piss you off
