Guess, someone got a lot of free time to put up those many faked files.......just take it as another attempt to cause trouble and unease around a P2P network.
Unfortunately, the enemies seem to be back from the WC vacation....

Im i the only one who finds these explanations strange?
First, as i said , this now applies to every single search i do, even the most obscure indie rock singers.
There is another thing that is not explained by the fact that these are fake files, and that is the names of the files that are being returned. The best way to explain this will be with an example.
Let's say i'm looking for a movie called "abcd xyz". On a normal search, i will get all the files that have "abcd" AND "xyz" in their name.
In the bad search , i will get all the files that have "abcd" OR "xyz" in their name , and they will all be fake files.
So there is also something wrong in the way the search is done, not only with the files themselves.
