Unhappy corrupt files????

I too am having corrupt file problems. my problem is (and this seems different than any other post) is that after i am alerted that the file i am downloading is corrupt (which ALWAYS happens after the file is done downloading) the file is no where to be found on my computer. i can't find them anywhere and there must be about 20 somewhere on my computer by now. this is very irritating because after waiting for a file to download it turns out to be "corrupted" at least 95% of the time.

is there anything i can do to fix this?


maybe it should be a feature that can be turned off. is it really your responsiblity to filter out files that are potentially damaged? if you say that a virus is no real concern then why else would this be necessary? assuming that most people are interested in music and video you filter out corrupt files because of what? their lack of quality? these are not recordings that have superb(or even good) audio or video qualities. why would a snap, or pop, or glitch in the visuals be of ANY concern? these are really just mediocre representations of better sounding and looking works. i just think the priorities are backwards here.

that's just my two cents.

now, give me a way to fix this and i'll buy a copy of PRO

btw, i'm and OSx user and i have a DSL connection (maybe that makes a difference??)
