1. Think I've seen that on Xfactor
(switched to it from Limewire)

No matter what search term you put in, you'll get a file of that size with the search keywords in the file name, right? Sometimes it's the only file.

5. Never downloaded or listened to it
Even with a Mac, I don't want to push my luck too much. :-)

4. It's aural spam
It might be virus laden

But since I'm a Mac User, I don't know

I wouldn't ask anyone else to take that chance
