Stop in which sense?
Does it pause? Do the servers keep timing out?

You need to enter a full path to the path.
Assuming its in your home folder and your user-id is "me",
then the path would be /Users/me/passwords.txt
Otherwise click on the job title in the queue and enter the password in the appropriate box.

think i found the error it was in settings, have downloaded the file, it is trying to unpack this moment so will se if the passwords is correct.
funny thing, have one password i the text file and can see that it is trying many different passwords to unpack with but not the one in the text file, will try again in the morning

There should be a Downloads link at the left side of the Finder.
