yeah its annoying when you download something and it turns out to be porn. generally if you click the little plus button and look down the list you can see that they have the files named as different things - or try searching hostiles list on this forum and using that.

Two things I'd advise.....
Before downloading a movie (especially the popular ones) check it with Bitzi:
How to use Bitzi
And secondly, after you've downloaded 5-10% go and preview it to see whether it is the file you want.
If your media player has problems with unrendered file or with codecs, you can download and try the free VLC player which comes with built-in codecs and can play almost all mediam files:
