Easy : just download the file again. It will see that the file already
exist, will think that the download got interrupted, so will resume the
download, of course it will be done in 5 seconds because the file is
already complete, but then it will sit there, and keep uploading the
file to others. Well, that's the behaviour Ihave witnessed with the CLI
version anyway ('btdownoadcurses'), don't know if the GUI version work
this way...
