Thread: Users Deliberatly Using Wrong File Names!

  1. #1
    That's what I think. What do you think!!. This should be stamped out somehow. I downloaded a 266MB file with a description as SIMS VACATION. only it was NOT. it turned out to be black &white then a 161MB file which was supposed to be SIMS VACATION. Nope a crappy racing game with no hintnhat it was.

    Think of those 56k users you idiots!. imagine how long they spent trying to get a movie for there kids and it turned out to be something completly different and umwatchable....

    Has anybody had this prob and is there a way around it. thanks

    I dont seem to be having any luck with the verfieds, either No sources are found or SIG2 never finds it.

    But do you know a good list of verifieds as they seem to be all over the place. thanks

    Another good way is using Autosearch and after a wile click the + sign to open all files in the search results!
    If any of these files is named other than the file you are looking for... (i mean a total differend name) DON'T DOWNLOAD IT!

    Some times the Verifieds are not updated.. so the file you are looking for is shared but not added to the new Verifieds yet!

    LOOK at the verifieds and do a search and look for the files that are the same size

    I'll go with rocktron's idea, as i cannot get the sig2 prog to find a thing, maybe i'm not using it correctly but when it put's the search into kaZZA traffic it never finds any sources.

    Never download software unless you get it from the verifieds section.
