is ther any way to stop this annoying ****, sometimes when i download a song and put it in a folder it puts a pic on that folder. it's a pic of the cd cover that song came from, i have tried but windows dosen't even recognize it when i try to restore the folder icon back to normal. any help out there?

AFAIK there's no way to check, before download, whether a file contains album art.
This thread might help.
