Could someone please explain what this means. I get it on downloads occasionally.

What version are you using?

When the servers send Newsbin a "430" error meaning "I don't have the part you're asking for" Newsbin counts each failure. When the failure count hits something like 10-15% of the set. Newsbin will abort the download.

With PAR files, you can only repair about 10% of the missing parts of the files.

Are these new or older sets?
