BNR2's database eventually becomes corrupt and has to be reset by
deleting the MsgLst.bnr file.  After you do this, you will have to
reimport any NZB files that have not finished.  The program won't
remember which parts you have previously downloaded after resetting
the database, so it is best to let any currently queued files that
have already started downloading finish before resetting the database.  

Also, it doesn't always remember queued phantom items between
restarts, so you might want to let it finish the queue before closing
it even when you are not resetting the database, or you might have to
reimport the NZB files.
