Do you experience problems during downloading?
Check your connection in Status and Interface settings window.
Use Test Server in Config > Servers.
We will probably ask you to do a test using only basic settings.
Do you experience problems during repair or unpacking?
Enable +Debug logging in the Status and Interface settings window and share the relevant parts of the log here using [ code ] sections.
Hopefully some one can help me with a problem I've been having with sabnzbd and sleep states on my vista machine.
My vista machine is set to sleep after 10 mins of idle. Without sabnzbd running it goes to sleep (s3 state) and wakes up fine. If I have sabnzbd running in the background but don't do any downloading again it will go to sleep fine. If however I set a download going this keeps the machine awake even after the download has finished and 10mins of idle have passed.
I also used to use hibernate (sleep mode) in windows XP and that had the same problem. It wasn't only SABnzbd but also allot of other programs. I eventually moved to an alternative. I now use 'autoshutdown' from barefoot inc http://www.barefootinc.com/ but there are lots of alternatives that work way better then the normal windows sleep.
I think windows sleep mode uses the idle of the pc to see when to sleep. A better way is to use a program that depends on mouse movement to. and if you want to scan you computer, just turn of the alternative sleep mode .
S3 sleep works fine for me in vista apart from when I've done some downloading in sab
Guess I could raise a feature request for an option to close sab after the queue is done rather than shutdown the pc. Or even an option to run a script after the queue finishes.

I've just added the option for 0.4.0 to hibernate the PC after SABnzbd has finished the queue. I guess I could expand it into a drop-down list containing:
Shutdown PC
Shutdown SABnzbd
Hibernate PC scripts
SCRIPT1
SCRIPT2
SCRIPT3
As for your pc not hibernating after being idle, I suspect it may be code in the downloading section not exiting a loop after the download is finished. I will investigate it a bit more tomorrow.
