Default Downloading and Possible SPAM

No matter what movie I search for, there is always a listing for the movie with file size of 106.7 KB's.
I checked it out and downloaded the file and all I got was a picture of a site to go to...
My question is...SPAM or is there something I need to do to get the movie without having to go to another site altogether????

This listing ALWAYS has people downloading from this file so i thought there was a trick to it to get the movie.

If this is SPAM, why does he get away with it?

thanks alot

A file that size is most likely containing something you don't want.. I'm not entirely sure, but I do think you should run your antivirus program, Spybot and Adaware.

Best to check out the online virus checker too if yours doesn't find anything...

Also go here and do this scan too...

Hope you come up clean
