Default Question about Bearshare?

Hi!! My name is Jay and this is my first post on this forum. I have Bearshare which I use to download movies and pictures from. I have Version 5.0.2. something. I think. I have a question though. Lately, I have tried to download pictures and movies from Bearshare. Some work just fine and others don't. There is a theme to the ones that don't work. Every time I download a file like this and go to view it, I get this saying. It comes up with a picture or movie that says that "I have won a free pass to Longmovs.com" or some other website. It gives me a screenname and password to access this site. Is anybody getting these besides me? Am I doing something wrong? Can Aaron or anybody else help me with this? Is this part of the Bearshare sabotage that was talked about in one of the posts I read? Thanks!! Jay

If it is the counterfeit "Bearsharev6" use the uninstaller and then scan for spyware.
If it is version 5.2.0.6 or higher or below 4.7 replace it with the one in this thread ==> Sticky: BearShare has been sabotaged.
