Hi

I've noticed recently in Limewire, that whatever file I search for, results are returned, that turn out to be wither invalid jpgs, or more likely, some toolbar for internet explorer.

I know that a P2P programme is only as good as the files that are shared on it, but I am curious as to where these files com efrom. Some programme is returning these results, that do not exist - for example I can run a search for something that i KNOW should not return results (e.g. a random phrase), and always the same file list is returned.

Where do these files come from? Does Limewire make files up so it can return more results? I cant believe this is true, so there must be an intermediate programme involved.

Apologies for length, couldnt explain problem succinctly!
