Okay so Lets say I download a 300 meg file, Azureus will say 432 megs downloaded @97%. Is this some sort of error?
It happens with all the files, they are always larger than azureus lists them.
Help?
 
Sometimes you get duplicate data (or corrupted/innacurate). That's why you have more downloaded than you need.
 
Put simply Azureus has a rather poor mechanism for detecting duplicate/bad data you have downloaded. I believe it to be overkill if you are receiving 100MB+ 'junk' of a 350MB file. This is simply unacceptable. However Azureus is quite powerful, try the new beta version, it's really good.

Well it has never happened before and now every single file is atleast 50 megs over estimate.
