Files Of 134.4kb
 

Just lately I have noticed at top of search results list comes files of 134.4kb (mp3. - T1). Two days ago one result was headed by 71 x 134.4kb, six minutes later did the same search and they were all gone. Today, a different search and results headed by 41 x 134.4kb. I am not going to risk downloading one but does anyone know what they are?

The small files are either: viruses/trojans/worms. Do not download these. If you browse through the forum sticky notes you will see this has been discussed. ;)

get yourself a AV and turn it on while downloading from Gnutella. Software files are extremely large, NOT small. What you are seeing is a trojan generator that will generate trojans under the names of popular files.

Sphinx: I checked the sticky re viruses before posting and did a subject search and couldn't find any mention of these 134.4 kb files. I have since noted that if you click on the row showing 134.4 the option of "Browse Host" immediately becomes unavailable. Anyway, thanks for info. How come all copies, if there really are ,say, seventy one get switched off at the same time? Are they all coming from one computer?
