Getting a lot of fake results!
 
Is anyone getting fake results like me??

Files seem for example 19 Mb but in reality are about 19Kb and don't do ****.

Am I the only one with this problem? If yes, how do I solve this?

Greetings,

Things to help avoid getting bogus files:
-Try doing more specific searches and choosing the media type.
- Choose the files with the highest score , the idea here is that the more users that have the identical file, better chances of it being legit
- Do NOT download files beginning with ! ( exclamation marks) or other files that seem out of the ordinary.

it's horrid actually, they didn't enable metatag searches did they?
i don't want "like" results.

Metatags = Very Big Mistake.

It appears that the price-fixing, sociopathic music-media multis are flooding P to P file-sharing networks with dummy mp3s. A ruse adapted from KGB-Stasi-CIA desinformation campaigns. The multis' aim is to foster mistrust and doubt among us file traders. All the more reason to stand fast, put up with their dummy offensive secure in the conviction that, eventually, we will succeed in downloading files that are, in fact, what they claim to be.

Unscrupled buisnessmen and greedy pay sites are the ones behind this. They want to get people to pay for their crap against their will. Why, because they are evil. That's why they do it.
If it does not look right odds are that it is not.
