Default Mysterious false search results ??

Often when I do searches i get results which seems to match my query completely. However they may be in the wrong fileformat (zip instead of mp3, asf instead of zip and so on). They often have the same size whatever I search for. Also when downloading them they seem to be only garbage.

I can get matches for complete nonsense words - for example like:

"bnasc brtstr mp3"

Gave a lot of hits like:
"bnasc_brstr_mp3" exe
"bnasc_brstr_mp3" mpg
"bnasc_brstr_mp3" zip

and also hits looking like this:
!!_YEEHAA_!!_bnasc_brkstr_mp3.zip

Everything garbage (or maybe virus?, I have a Mac so I can fortunately not run the exe-files).

Anyone knows anything about these things? It's a mystery to me.
