Default Hello guys - I'm new and need help !

I've just joined Limewire and have a question. When a search for a DVD movie is complete, some of the files found seem way too small to be a movie, e.g. ***** movie - 29.0KB !

Are these actually movies or are they fake files ?

Janey

You answered your own question with your doubt. Follow your wisdom to download bliss. Remember we only download permissible files and not copywrited stuff

full lenth movies should be in the neiborhood of 600 to 900 mb ....true dvd quality is around 4 gb...and about the copyright thing everyone shares and d/ls these files anyway...dispite what they may tell you . and yes file size is a verry good indicator of wether or not its a fake...or if you know what extension it is it could just be a torrent for the movie ...or a virus ....or a picture of one scene of the movie or lots of other things...

be sure to right click a file you are interested in and do a Bitzi check on the file. avi files may vary from 149 mb to 700 mb depending on the quality. A dvd file is usually in the upper 600 mb range. Not all files are correctly named or even playable. Bitzi will hep you confirm this. Also after you have started a download and have enough to truly preview go to wwwdotavipreviewdotcom and get the avi preview player. It's free.
