It would be nice if when xnap searched a resume file,
xnap would look for files that had the same complete
filesize. That way if a file name was changed it would
still download to your file.
I have personally changed file names so they would fit
better in my list. If someone started to download from
me they would only be able to download from me
because it was my file name. BUT if you did as I
suggested as long as the name was not a drastic
difference and file size was the same it would work.

    XNap works exactly that way. The resume files are matched by
    size. Sadly MD5 hashes are disabled on most public servers.
