I think I got it now. Created a bat-file. Hopefully this does solve this problem.

Hi. I also have the memory problem (program hangs up always at the same position, file size ~600mb, no error message in the logs) and the FAQ is unclear, since it seems to refer to the jar-version, but not to the exe-version of the program. I already googled for help, but it's beyond me.

How do I allocate memory with the exe-file?

Hi, I also have this issue with very large files too - typically trying to download a file in the region of 1.4GB. Restarting does not help, as although the download restarts afresh, it hangs again at the same point. It is reliably reproduceable.

Can't connect to usenet servers with version 1.4.2 - latest version that used to work was 1.3.5 - I'm on Win 7 32bit

I noticed this some time ago also.

It is about the FILE-size (usually RAR), not articles/segments or whatever.
As many tools do, the whole file is downloaded to memory, decoded, then saved.
This increases speed, because it minimalizes disk-activity.
Using SABnzbd too (with 8 newsservers), with 1536 MB RAM allocated.

Start HelloNZB with 'much more memory for Java' (as per above message) solves the problem.
Piece of cake! :)
