I read the FAQ and other threads in this forum but can't find the answer. My win XP crashed during download this morning & when I try to resume I get a '10061 urlopen error - connection refused. I get the same error when I try to reseed a torrent already downloaded from you. I can download & reseed from uknova and others though.

I read on another site that this error can happen if the tracker is down but there are no reports of your tracker being down.

What do I need to do?
 
Sometimes I had to change the files from one directory to another, so I could get some seeds again, but I guess it's not the same problem.
 
Thanks bihus - this worked!!

Your reply gave me the info I needed. The previous files I had downloaded & re-seeded were on my F drive which is really small. I decided to download the new file to my C drive which has much more room. When my system crashed (because of an unrelated zone alarm firewall problem), the tracker info somewhere must have got screwed up - maybe because it was tracking to 2 different drives. After reading your reply I removed the new torrent & related file using that option in ABC (only had 1.2% of the file anyway). Then I started a fresh download and it is working for me.
