Why all the porn?
 
Everytime I try to download, what I thought was a movie, I get some jerk who disguised his pornsite as a movie. Can't this be stopped?

Sorry no,

welcome to the wonderful world of filesharing ;)

A movie is very different in size to one of those spam files. A movie is hundreds of mega bytes big, while those porn ads are never bigger than 400 kb.

That's not entirely accurate - I've seen where people take some of my original content (movies with "qnr") and then name some of their porn clips with the same basic filenames. Although, again, there is a significant difference in size (mine are about 700mb and the imposters (which are probably just renamed so curious parents/spouses don't see they're porn) are just a few megs....
