Files of -1B in size
I've seen files with the size -1B, I asked one what size it really had and it didn't exist, yet.
It seems it only exist in the filelist, why?
And I think that in some circumastances, they are next to a .dctmp file from the same download. Only from 0.4034
So is this a bug or an "undocumented feature"?

I came across "-1" size with filelists not being downloaded because of no slots available. As I found in QueueManager.h, "-1" is the symbol that DC++ uses for the unknown size of a filelist before it starts to download. And the reason for the size being shown in the transfer window is (as I suppose) the fact that the user has no extra slots (small file/filelist) available (huge filelist or very slow upload), but DC++ shows the name and size of each file that failed to start and the user is online.

-1 Files vs FileLists
Ok, there is a difference here - I have seen TTH Searches show a FILESIZE as -1B, even though the TTH matches - I have not determined if there is any client version correlation or anything like that.
There is a DIFFERENT issue with the FILELIST showing as -1B - that normally happens when DC++ can't get a slot for the list - like if you are using v668 and trying to get a v305 (or older) filelist.
