Hi katydidit,

There are lots of fake (& also infected) files spammed on the network - it sounds like you might be seeing those. There are companies employed to upload fake files - to discourage the use of p2p. Check out the links below for more info.

Fake files showing up in search results

Try using this hostiles list & see whether that makes a difference: The TechNutopia Fullsize Hostiles List for BearShare and LimeWire

Also, try varying your search terms when looking for music. Try using the 'All Types' search - look for artist or album name, rather than song title. Try downloading a file with 10 sources or less. Try a modem or T1 source, rather than a T3 source.

Also, try downloading an older song...see whether you have the same thing happen. Often, it's popular/new files that bring up this spam.

Don't forget to check files with Bitzi - even though music files aren't rated as often as movie or program files, other users might've rated the files as useless
