So why not let me download it anyway?  Warn me that I probably have it, or it's 
might be a fake, and let me force it to download if I want.

I don't think the files I was trying to download were fajes are duplicates.  I 
can't document this because I've removed everything since then.  What is the 
downside to this suggestion?  Furthermore, how do you know there isn't a bug 
where the MD5 comparison gives a false positive?

At the very least it should tell me what file that I already have has the same 
MD5 so I can move it aside.

Summary:  Exception DownloadTypes.Already_done, but I haven't got the file

Original Submission:  Many times I will attempt to get a file I know I don't 
have and MLDonkey will tell me some form of the Already_done exception in the 
subject of this bug.  The three interfaces (gui, web, telnet) have different 
ways of reporting the error.  I don't see a pattern in the files it refuses to 
download.  This has happened with search results, and with ShareReactor.com 
ed2k links.

It happens when you try to download a file that has the same md4 as a 
previously downloaded file. Even if the files have different names, it is the 
same file (for example, a fake).
