And that virus has been reported widely across the gnutella network. You need to be careful when downlding certain types of files. Bitzi Lookup can be one avenue of reporting but I'm not sure they deal with many of those types of files on their database. Keep in mind you're discussing copyright/patent file so specific named files of that sort should not be discussed here on this forum. Limewire.org & this forum do not condone downlding of copyright material.
