Have been trying to D/L "Girl with the pearl earring". Have about 12 complete D/L

None will play in 4 different players The file sizes are between 700,000 and 300,000.
But all files show the same running time of 62mins, 28secs

Are these fakes or what is going wrong. Where is a genuine copy

p.s. All my other D?Ls work great. :angry:

yes it will, you can preview even mp3 with it, videolan previews dat files of almost all kinds and that is why i suggested it boss :lol:

you can even go here and ad it to your tools and preview menu boss (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=72521)

If u want to make sure u are not donwloading any fakes just follow these simple steps:

1. Check the movie lenght before u download. let's say it's 1h52minutes.
2. go to www.imdb.com and find the movie and look for the movie lenght. If it's the same like the one in kazaa,go for it and start download.
3. just to make sure the quality of the movie it's ok after a couple of MB of dowanload go to avipreview and check the content !

Any questions ? B)

Follow Mus' advice and use Videolan. May need more like 20MB before you can preview. I assume you were using AVI preview anyway.
