regarding recent stories of the industrial/entertainment complex's attempts to muddy the waters of P2P filesharing by releasing bad or dummy versions of content...

I just downloaded several files that were purported to contain the movie Blue Crush (a surfing flick that is scheduled for release in August). The file sizes looked about right but in each case, I received an error message from my media player (Zoom PLayer) "unable to create filters". Since I have never had problems playing anything with this media player, I'm wondering did I get spoofed or is this a legit error (and therefore fixable)?
