Filter T-

Tools>Options>Filters>Keywords.....then add T-

If this overfilters, then try filtering: T-1 and T-2 and T-3 and so on.
I haven't filtered out incomplete files in my search parameters, but there sure are a lot of them floating around out there. Some folks actually rename the file to the original file name by deleting the T-abcdefhghi, so even by actively filtering all the T-'s out there, you'll still end up getting incomplete files. I suppose you could always confirm with Bitsi before you download, but I think the success rate for any given file in Bitsi is around 10% more or less. jro
