Error is Dire

Had an error message this morning. File had a red icon next to it (stop sign, as I recall) and a message that said "ERROR IS DIRE". I didn't notice an error number. I went straight to help and the internet but came up with nothing.

What sort of things would cause that message?

Hi.

Do you have this problem still? Is it a full name of error? Did you change anything before it happened?

I restarted and it has not given me another error yet. Of course, the file was downloading fine for quite a while last night without error so I don't know how long it ran before the error occurred or how long it may run before it is likely to occur again.

As far as I remember the message I posted was the full message. But I might have missed something. If it happens again I will take a screenshot.

As far as I know, I didn't change anything before it happened other than adding a few additional torrents to the queue. At least, I didn't change anything intentionally. Who knows what I might have done inadvertently.

Current status of the download is 0/kbs, seeds 0(0), peers 0(8).

It came back while I was out this morning. See image for error info:

The portion of the error which read "Error: Is a directory" is curious. I presume it is referring to a directory on some other peer since the only directory I have for it was created during the download process.

ADDENDUM: Got a note that my original image link could not be accessed. Sorry about that folks. Shoulda known better than to use a Microsoft service. New link above should be accessible to all.
