I've had them do that as well never really looked into the issue. I'm sure someone on her knows the reason why.

It looks like the file started over again but it doesn't actually show you that. Maybe Azureus wasn't closed properly.. I have no idea

I don't know myself but could the hash be corrupt?

Could be a glitch, but you usually download and upload way more that the "file" size because of packets/overhead and you also can get sent data that azureus then throws out(probably because it doesnt match the hash). But it is very unusual to have downloaded so much. Something is def. wrong.

Is it possible he is reading the volume uploaded? Honestly, I've made that mistake before once getting used to Azureus.

sounds like you are being sent poisoned data that gets thrown out when compated to the file hash.

which means it is possible that your IP is being recorded and you will be getting a subpoena soon

I agree most likely bad data been sent from the tracker with failed hashes. Cancel the download and delete the torrent as the file is probably a fake.

Or it could be that he duplicated it. by clicking on the torrent file to many times. did u look in the folder and see the same folder inside the original folder? u could be downloading it twice. if that is not the case then its just a fake torrent file.
