File Detection??
« on: August 28, 2006, 07:57:33 AM »

Hi everyone,

I live in Japan and this morning, my ISP called me and told me that they detected I downloaded an illegal movie, for example "Find Me Guilty". OK, indeed I did  :], and I know that is not so good.

But then I started to think how they could knew it, because after downloaded it, I deleted it (because was bad quality).

How can be that? As far as I know, aMule works with "small pakages", so It is not the complete file and it download it as "01.part", or not?

I don't know how it works, can someone explain it to me?

Please...  :baby:

Thank you

The probably got a letter from some anti-p2p company that detected you were downloading that file (because you were in the sources list in ed2k network).

It happens in some countries. As we don't support sharing illegal content in your countries' law, we can't help you on this issue :)
