Is there a place for users to swap hints?As I'm a new user this might going
over old ground, 
but here is my tip. 
To avoid having to restart a download when your dial-
up connection is about to be cut off (my ISP drops 
connections every 2hrs). 

When this happens you may get partial files and it 
takes a while for the prog to catch up with the 
position it had got to. 

About 5 mins before the connection is due to be 
dropped, pause the mirroring and let all files 
currently downloading finish. Break and remake the 
connection. Resume mirroring and it happily carries on.
