    Whenever I come to this forum, I feel that I am among friends. People ask, others help. Everyone knows the pain of DL ing a fake file, even if you can stop it after 10 MB, with AVI preview. So I suspect no one from this forum of naming a file wrongly. I understand that many more are using P2P filesharing than the ones here, but why fake names and descriptions?

    If it is their Participation LV they are worried about, start using K++ (they should anyways )
    Whenever someone detects a fake movie, they cancel the DL, and Participation LV will drop again.
    The only thing they gain, is bad reputation.

    What we should start here, is a new category with a list of every fake file we detect, and the full description of it. Even though it is a huge task, it WILL save time for us all, and make Kazaa even better!

    That brings us to the next issue: virus infected software.... I have DL ed at least 5 software that was a trojan horse, and som others that was detected as viruses in midst-download.

    At one point I had to restart my comp in Safe Mode, run the ever-so-slow-NAV 5 times, restart in Noraml Mode again, just to get rid of it all.....

    I delete the file ASAP as the NAV detects it is a trojan. I am proud to say that all my files are what they are described as, and no viruses!

    I take it you have added them in the verifieds.

    If not already there.

    The more the better, then people won't have to download false files, or viruses / trojans.

    Everyone can do their bit.
