He was downloading from himself?
Edit: By the file sizes and numbers...
I'm guessing it's Anime... : )

w00t w00t *raises hands* CCSDUDE is in da zone. lmfao
How'd he transfer shit to himself? I know the old IE/Browser trick, but that wouldn't work for this.
Unless he has/had two PC's set up on a network and he shared then searched himself.

Yea, I have done the same exact thing. I was looking for a file that I didn't know I already had or something and I started to download. I saw the speeds at 2,000 Kb/s and I was like what the hell. I clicked find more from same user and has I browsed through the files I thought they looked pretty familiar. And yes it was on the same PC.

Yeah, I did that with some music one time, I tried to find a better ripped version, the tags came back different, but when I listened to the song, it sounded the same, I checked back and I uploaded it my username...hmm
He is on a private network, but that was from his computer to his computer, it could be because he's behind a firewall, or a proxy or something
What happens is it starts the download from somebody else, then when you search more it finds you, you might have to be on the same supernode though

It appears as you said a file on the same network. I could do that from my own house!

Yup happened to me also.. it was very weird too
I started to download an mp3 that was 5MB and I finished it in 2 seconds.. (back than I was on 56k.. Omg the horrible days) I was like holy shit! Then I realized it was a file I already had..
