are there errors in the log?
what numbers did u enter in settings:

->Download #2
->Connections

[tsdarkness]

my log is disabled.

I'm using 6 connections.

->Download #2
Maximum memory cache is 50MB
Remove articles stored in cache for more than is 30 minutes
and the two pause option it not checked.

Clearly debugging is going to be a challenge with your log disabled.

Some usual suspects to check: dodgy files in your autoimport folder (empty it), dodgy queue item (clear it), corrupt queue (delete queue files from \misc), bad file permissions (reinstall, disable UAC or run as admin), etc. 

Isolate the problem, if it's reproducible = fixable bug, if not = unfixable PEBCAK.

How much memory does your machine have?  Is it bombing when repairing files or extracting?  Memory requirements increase when performing these tasks, especially if you're not disabling d/ling.

i meant the connections settings especialy the retry count...
however a detailed log would certainly be helpful

I have 4GB RAM
My Global connection time out is : 30 Seconds
Delay set to : 1 Second
Article not found retry count = 0
Delay = 1 minutes

ok nothing there that should cause such an behavior...
does the running out of resources happen every time or every once in while or after a certain amount of time?

Permissions/UAC under control? NZB autoimport?

[tsdarkness]

My UAC is Disabled.
and i doesn't use autoimport nzb.
this problem happend over 6 times in 4 days.
it happens randomize...
sometime when running altbinz over 6 hours.
and other time when running it about 13-30 minutes.
I don't know why it's happened!

I have set delay between connection to 3 second.
and unchecked article cmd
and set remove articles stored in cache to 10 minutes
and maximum memory cache size to 100MB

Now I'm running it and i will see if it will happened again!!!

You're not going to make any progress debugging until you enable your
LOG

sometime when running altbinz over 6 hours.

and set remove articles stored in cache to 10 minutes

and maximum memory cache size to 100MB

- I have had it actively running for over 48 hours
- remove articles is set to 30 mins
- max memory cache is 128MB

- do have mine set to pause d/l while par and rar active; no reason really, just a lil OCD  

Not sure if this helps, but at least to eliminate testing scenarios.

How big are the files you are d/ling and attempting to repair and unrar?  I don't want/need to know anything about target files except final size.  Is anything else running on your box?  You said the process was occupying 1750 megs when it crashes; used by process not cached.  Can you supply a screenshot of your TaskManager or a dump of all running processes?

Hecks is right, you need to turn on your Log ...that's like trying to diagnose your car without even opening the hood...(images of old Thunderbolt commercials where customers are trying to mimic the noise made by their car comes to mind).

[tsdarkness]

OK
I will enable the log.

the downloading files size the largest one is 20GB and there is files between 700MB - 4GB
and the number of files is over 8 files.

I don't think that is the problem!

I think the problem when start a connection.

so now:
I have set delay between connection to 3 second.
and unchecked article cmd
and set remove articles stored in cache to 10 minutes
and maximum memory cache size to 100MB

I will see if it will crash again and view the log file.
Hope it will work good.

I recently d/led and extracted a 19 GB file and had no issues.  Creating a new connection would not result in a resource issue; you're only using 6 connections.  Let's see what the log says if it happens again.  You may want to scrub the log file before posting.

AFAIK, Alt.Binz can experience such 'race conditions' only in the circumstances I listed in my first post.  Your Log should tell you something useful about this - if only what Alt.Binz was doing when things went kaplooey.
