Hi chr, thanks for reporting this. Is this happening with LottaNZB 0.5.1
(http://www.lottanzb.org)? I happen to remember something like this, but
I believe it was with LottaNZB 0.4.x.

In the meantime you could try the following;
Edit > Preferences > (General tab) and uncheck "Download PAR recovery files only if necessary".

If it does happen in LottaNZB 0.5.1, I'll take take a look at it as soon
as possible.

Bug description:
Let's say I want to download 3 files: file1.nzb, file2.nzb, file3.nzb
I add them all into queue and LottaNZB starts downloading

There are the times that all 3 files are downloaded one after another, but most of the times LottaNZB stops somewhere in the middle of queue, f.e. after completing file2.nzb.

Here's example of last debug logs before stop:
06:44:51	HellaNZB	Transferred 454.7MB in 10m 35s at 733.2KB/s (file1)
06:44:51	HellaNZB	Downloading: file2
06:44:51	HellaNZB	Parsing: file2.nzb...
06:44:51	HellaNZB	file1: Verifying via par group: file1.part01.rar*.{par2,PAR2}..
06:44:51	HellaNZB	Parsed: 33 files (3216 posts), 1219.0MB
06:44:51	HellaNZB	Queued: 1219.0MB
06:44:56	HellaNZB	Skipping pars.. (Skipped par2: file2.vol01+2.par2 (6MB))
06:45:09	HellaNZB	Skipped pars: 5 files, 61.5MB (actual skipped: 59.6MB)
06:45:09	HellaNZB	 file2.vol00+1.par2 ->
 file2.vol15+3.par2 (18 blocks)
06:45:16	HellaNZB	file1: Finished par verify (1 par group, took: 24s)
06:45:16	HellaNZB	file1: Finished processing (took: 25s) (total: 11m)
07:11:35	HellaNZB	Transferred 1156.7MB in 26m 44s at 738.1KB/s (file2)

file2 seems to be complete, but it's not being saved in the destination directory, and file3 is not starting to download.
LottaNZB does not crash, I can still access f.e. logs, options or add another files, but it is impossible to make it start 
downloading again without reseting entire program.

After reset it may save the content of file2.nzb into destintation and then starts downloading file3.nzb, but another time it starts downloading file2.nzb again from beginning (even if previously downloaded content is still in temp dir).

I've been trying to figure it out but have no clue what might be causing this... It seems kinda random.

Any more informations I could provide to track this issue?
