This is one of the problems with P2P networks, because there is no central control, just thousands of individuals with their PCs, you will find files with wrong names, viruses, ads or just a large file of nothing.

People are strange and P2P-ing can sometimes bring that strangeness closer than you would really want.

However, I believe you can confirm a files authenticity using Bitzi.com, I’ve not used it myself or sure how it works but others in the forum always recommend it.

Here is the URL to the “Bitzi”instructions:
