The fourth one is much better.
See how it has plenty of info about each source.
Right-click it and get a Bitzi ticket to see if anybody had something to say.
That still doesn't explain why it was going so bloody slow, at 1 source.

Also, is there any way to tell if a file is a fake before I attempt to download it?
