That's a very good point. I have always preached for people to never share their incoming "save" folder. I have always felt that files should be verified for completion and quality before hitting the shared folder However some called me silly for the thought so I shut up
But in the case of Kazaa/Imesh etc the issue is worthless with the fake file farms out there. It would be my guess that 1/3 - 1/2 of the shown data is corrupt/fake/incomplete/virus etc.
