On usenet the files are split into parts, from the look of it what you are
getting had 39, if some parts of the file are missing from the server
there are not there to get. Does this happen with all files or just this
one ?

Also there is a setting that gives the first part a higher score so BNR
gets them first (they have important info to help the parts join) some how
you could have got the 01 parts and then lost them, or changed the
directory, that is why when you re-loaded the .nzb it did not get then
again, because from its records it had got them.

There is a switch on the tab you get when you load .nzb file (1 of 3,
middle one IIRC) that tells BNR to "get parts again even if got already"
reload the .nzb with this switch checked. But you need to find why the
parts were not in the same place as the rest.

You dont need to delete the MsgLst.bnr file if you only use .nzb files
(mine goes ok for 2 years) well not much. But if you did then it
should have re-got them when you re-load .nzb after ...unless they were
not on the server, also Par2 files can fix them as well.
