so being i dont have a floppy, nor a burner, havng defragged the computer ten times and deleted the unwanted files not much else i can do but get a cleaner program i guess and look (read what im downloading) before i leap (download many files hitting shiftkey). i remember back in the old days kazaa didnt have all this crap online

Getting a decent cleaner program is not a bad idea. Also being careful what you download. Using Bitzi, also preview your files as downloading to be sure they are what you were wanting. Movie download issues (click on blue link) & also How to find music in which the same principles apply to videos.

In the latter days of Kazaa it did. It was spammed with junk in an attempt to prevent people sharing copyright files in the same way other networks such as Gnutella have been attacked by such organisations; Beware of Fake files in search results, as well as porn organisations attempting to protect their products, spamming samples of their works, generally in .mov format.

An old article, but it still applies now: Quality of Content on the Network (click on link)

thanks man, i just dont find it cute that people tag things like this and even if it isnt real, it still makes people ill. anywho, what cleaners do you recommend. i dont even know what to type in the search engine other than "computer cleaner"

im taking an extra step on on filtering my frostwire: what other keywords should be in the filter? it seems these days they use alot of slang and special code words to sneak their stuff

Check both Arne_Barbe's post in this thread, also Peerless. In fact, do a search for previous posts by Peerless, he has recommended the best cleaners to go for. Not sure if it's in this thread or not.

Not much we can do about the secret tagging. Bitzi is a good way however to check the validity of a file. Bitzi site recently has been under problems, so hopefully it will be back to normal soon.

"Check all files with Bitzi before downloading" is the first line in this thread. Never, NEVER, download files without caution. Bitzi, because of imput by users, can save you hours of useless and dangerous downloading. Any file shared on any network may have info about it on Bitzi. I don't mean just files with a given name, but the exact file (or copies of it). All file types are covered, i.e., audio, video, software, even txt files may have comments about them on the Bitzi site.

In the world of torrents, I never download files that have no comments from other users. Remember, those fake files can really mess up your computer.

Shared files are like Hallowe'en candy; most of it is safe and tasty, but you check out each piece before you eat it.

Hey Aaron, not all underage nudity is porn. Its explicitly defined in the law. Look at all the Fed and Supreme Court decisions on the subject-if its not the product of abuse then it will most likely fall under the protection of the law. You can even go to Barnes and Noble and by books with young teen girls, yes, fully nude. So since you don't have a law degree stop posting idiotic comments that have no logical or legal grounding. Nudity is not porn, its what is being done to the child or teen, and/or what they are doing to themselves.

It really depends on jurisdiction as far as nudity goes. Some states
and countries are stricter than others, some ridiculously so.

Well one of us is. lol

The point is that the cops can peruse my computer for a IP address and come and get me. So you guys in the Western world that have CP, even by accident, should get busy.

Anybody have the address of Fry's?
