Like getting thousands of results in your search? Yes for copyright files, fakes are spammed. Some tips about this & reasons for it here Recognising fake files

Try choosing those with just a few hosts under the # column of the search results. Also, those that say Modem connection will be safe to download from. If you get multiple thousands of results in any search for a copyright file, you can be guaranteed 98% are fake.
