The number in the # column shows the number of hosts who are sharing an identical version of the file.

What happens when you try to download...do files sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever?? If that's the case, sounds like fake files...they're all over the network now.
If you're searching for music files, use the All Types search & search for artist or album rather than song title. Go for a file with 10 sources or less...stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources.
If you're searching for video files, always chech the file with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake.

Check out the threads below for more info & tips, including how to use Bitzi;)
