Default Wondering : there's one other approach to misnamed files

I did the same when I first started, now I dont DL any movie unless its been rated with bitzi....
That's a good idea .. [it's also a good idea to report such traps & scams to Bitzi- see the sticky topic here somewhere ...]

You can always just wait til a meg or 3 have downloaded and 'Preview' the file ... - you can obviously tell pretty fast whether it has got the correct title ... And it sure beats DL'ing 700MB before finding out.

I'd also recommend you watch out for Win Media WMV files that may have 'DRM' - there are many dangers there (I posted a 'warning' at http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=27031 which explains it all - but, at a *minimum* you can get a file you *can't* use, no matter what !)
