    Why are some files named as (incomplete) from Usenet?

    I'm new to Usenet, and have had no problems until I decided to download a game. I opened the .ngz file in the appropriate app and highlighted all the files inside, and clicked 'download'. It appeared to have downloaded fine, apart from 3 rar files that have the error: Article Not Found.

    I've since checked the other files that have downloaded to my hdd and the majority of them are labelled file-name.(incomplete).rar

    Any idea why? There's 9 out of 71 files that have downloaded with the correct filename and I'm hoping all the rest haven't had errors cos that's a lot of bandwidth wasted if so. Any help with the Article not found error is appreciated too :)
