Hey Jayjo,
Man you need to be sure of what your downloading to your computer!
You may not have noticed that that file 3462kb does not show a bitrate!
Mp3 files should have a bit rate.
That 3462kb file seems like a worm or virus that actually directs you to download another program called , playermp3, from GoDaddy web site.
I have O idea who godaddy is , or whether , playermp3 is corrupt? , however I get heaps of spam emails from their servers (originating or channelled , I dont know).
If you study the files found during searching on Limewire, you'll be able to sift the good files from the crook ones.
Goodluck, look after your hard drive!!

yup Mark II...

And they do...

But, and here is where your comment does not obtain...

The display of a bitrate for any given file is totally dependent on the 'compatibility' of the client(s)...
(And, of course, the file being one that actually can have a bit rate to be quoted !)

You must not confuse the lack of a display of bitrate, within the GUI display of various Gnutella Network clients, as being synonomous with a bad or corrupt file...

Any idiot can prove, very quickly, what specific file sizes to avoid...
How ?
Do a search for your granny's name spelled backwards !
Anything !
or, one of my favourites...
"Britney's Historical Guide To Cosmology and Fusion Reaction Tokamaks"

Try it !

But, please do not confuse 'No bitrate info' with 'bad files', OK ?
