pbmpanda,

Someone was in the process of downloading the files or they would not be in your incomplete directory.

Some of those wmv & jpg files that show up in search results replicating your search name are frequently porn. Here's a couple of explanations: Fake movies & why & also Quality of Content on the Network So these may have been accidentally selected by mistake. You should recognise these files after a while by their size & immediate response to searches. Personally I filter them out of searches using keyword filters: I block .jpg & .wmv & even .exe These filters can be added or removed anytime.
