Newbie Alert - My arrow icon is red

The download icon is red because Demonoid is a dead tracker. You're going to have to find whatever you're looking for from some other site. Alternatively, you might want to try enabling DHT if you haven't already done so to see if there are any other DHT nodes lurking with the torrent still running.

Well, you do know that Demonoid is long dead, right? So the tracker no longer exists and hence the red arrow. You may still be able to complete the download with the help of DHT, but I wouldn't guarantee it. What's the availability like? If it's above 1.0, then you can at least make a run for it and keep your fingers crossed, else get rid of it.

I wasn't aware that demonoid was dead and gone as not been downloading for long and mainly stuck to one tracker.

DHT is showing 270+ nodes (?) and availability is showing as 12.... so I'll stick it out and see what happens. It's currently on 46.8% but only up to about 10-15kBs.

Thanks for your advice and taking the time to reply.
