Do you own a fritzbox as a router?
If so: This is a common problem with this hardware.
Tryto change the DNS server on your computer (do not use your router as DNS, use e.g. google DNS [8.8.8.8]) and check if this fixes your problem.
Also update the firmware of your Fritzbox.

The links are not from ZippyShare, and I'm not using a Fritzbox router. Somehow, it *seems* that perhaps this is related to what's also going on elsewhere on the same network. I say that only because I haven't run into the problem again since I made one change in my behavior. During the download, I have also been unzipping files. This works fine EXCEPT when I select a bunch of files at one time, and select to unzip them. It seems odd because I believe that process goes through them in sequence. So, it should be the same as I am doing otherwise (still unzipping, but just doing them in smaller batches). Anyway, like I said, I haven't had it happen again since I made this tweak. Somehow, I guess JDownloader goes haywire in the previous process. I don't think it is properly downloading at the speed it shows in Task Manager. But, it's basically locked up at that stage.
