Force download when torrent already on d/l list?

I'm trying to download several TV episodes but get this error message: "The torrent "Season 07" is already on your download list, and cannot be seeded".

There is a unique video file for each episode, yet only the 1st episode of a given season can be downloaded. I tried re-naming the current download file within Shareaza, but that didn't work.

Is there a way to force the download in this situation?

Config details:
Shareaza 2.5.2.0, 32-bit (r8461 20100206) on Windows 7 home edition 64-bit.

This error message means that the torrent you're trying to start downloading is already present in your download list. Probably, the other torrent files you're trying to add are torrent files that have the same BTIH, so they are in fact the same torrent with other names. Maybe you're trying to download a fake or scam?

BTW, you know that it is forbidden over there to talk about copyright infringement, so I suppose that the files you're trying to download are legally available for download where you are trying to download them... ;)
