    For starters mate are you using the par files? Depending on what is in your nzb you will usually get a load of par2 files. There are used to repair any corrupt rars & can recover seemingly hopeless files.

    You will need quickpar if you don't already have it

    No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride...

    when you install the programme the files will be associated to it so all you have to do is double click the par and it will do the rest for you. Just make sure you have it set to auto repair.

    grabit is a cracking piece of download software if you're only after the binaries...
