Hey Girls!<3
I download a torrent of season 1 of True Blood. Once I had downloaded about 1 GB so I went in and browsed through the files. I have "view thumbnails" that causes the displayed images of the contents of movies that are in folders.
I discovered that in the "True.blood.s01" then it was porn, not the series I had downloaded.
I opened one of the episodes in VLC and then to my surprise, the first five seconds of a Tom and Jerry episode, followed by a porn film of the Battle "Cumfiesta and the like" .. (all episodes)
Do not be misunderstood, but I do not stop the download, was not angry or anything. What surprised me even more was that when I had downloaded 5.6 GB in total and I opened the episodes again and it was now True Blood..There was no sign of Tom and Jerry, and no signs of porn, either.

How is this possible?

Have I been exposed to attacks of various kinds ..

Is it really possible that the episodes are changing from one thing to show, to show something else..
Preview image to the folder is still not in conformity with what is on the actual files ..

Havent u read it properly he says when he just wanted to get preview of the incomplete file(downloaded just 1GB out of 5) he did see something else but latter after completing he found the proper content. I guess u just post to increase post count. U are lame.
 
i read the whole thing i understood what happened and from what i read it happened twice. My advice is to try new sources b.c its not a virus. the more people want a file the bigger chance people will post porn or fake content to piss people off. thats why i always make sure people confirm the file is good. sorry re read it and b.c i quickly read it i answered incorrectly. i have never had that happen to me it either shows the real thing when i try or it wont let me play never had it show the wrong thing and then when its done show me the real file
 
This sometimes happen with torrent downloads, when the file is not downloaded completely. What happens actually is that it starts showing parts of some previously deleted/moved files that existed in the same partition of the hard disk. But when ur download completes u find everything as usual.

If u want to know more detail view then go through some articles regarding how files are stored in different segments on hard drive and how they are accessed.
